[Verse 1]

Time moves things around

From the head, to the heart

The back, the knees

Where do you carry your memories?

Mine are scattered remnants

Picked up, set down, abandoned

A forgotten glass perched between

Book and plant


[Chorus]

And I know it could be all for nothing

I'm fine with that

I know it might be all for nothing

I'm fine with that


[Verse 2]

I dreamt I'd find honey if I just

Followed the bees

Where do they carry their memories?

Mine are scribbled fragments

Sonnet on a napkin

I'm often left wondering

What happened


[Chorus]

I know it could be all for nothing

I'm fine with that

I know it might be all for nothing

I'm fine with that


[Bridge]

Your eyes stay green but your hands keep getting older

Dearest memory machine, it's all on your shoulders

The words still sting but my skin is getting stronger

Dearest memory machine, how much longer?


[Outro]

Time moves things around

From the head, to the heart

The back, the knees

Where do you carry your memories?

Where do you carry your memories?
