[C]
Is this the part where the brain scan shows where memories reside?
Some ambiguity shaping me, suddenly producing light.
Triggered like a tripwire, [F] every time I [C] breathe it in.
Isn't it strange that a lilac tree [F] is what [C] unlocks where I've been?
Like a time machine, rebuilds the past, [Am] my memories return.
[F] Like remembering the ashes [C] before they burn.
It is the friction, the light to [F] match, desperate [C] attempts to make it last.
So I hold my breath for as long as [F] I can.
[C]
But before long the wind swells in.
[Am] I started a fight I could never [F] win.
But I will hold on [C] as long as I can.
[Dm] [F] It finishes against my [G] will.
The light goes out, my heart goes [F] still.
And just like [C] that I believe in ghosts.
[F] Time and space are in my [C] bed.
[G] The forming disappear [C] and exit.
Now I can't escape the [G] smell [C] of smoke.
The research says the only way to keep memories intact.
Is to lock them away and to close the door until countless years have passed.
I guess that explains why the strangest things [Am] can conjure up the past.
And [F] forgotten time will find its long [C] way back.
As thin as air, as light as snow.
[F] Some [C] combination of the unknown.
It doesn't matter, I just know I need [F] more.
[C]
Cause I feel like I've been sleeping through [Am] the better [C] part of [F] this.
Laying dormant through an endless winter [C] that doesn't even exist.
It's [Am] [F]
[Em] [G] [C]
[F] [G]
[C]
[F] gravity in an [G] hourglass.
Responsible for the
[Am] [F] avalanche.
And the [C] loudest silence that [G] I've ever [C] heard.
[F] Memory clears your [G] bell.
A story I will try [Am] to tell.
[F] But maybe this [C] time
[G] without [Am] warning.
