Memories

Memories don't leave, they'll never go,

Forever eating at your soul,

Reach out to let go,

Reach out to let...

Memories don't leave, they'll never go,

Forever eating at your soul,

Reach out to let go,

Reach out to let go...

Mm, back to them corners where I used to stand,

Watchin' them days pass,

Back to that same place, same grass,

Back to that same stage, same chance,

And, back to that same mentality, where everybody knows you,

But now you're alone in your tragedy,

Back to them grey walls that haunted you (?) same reality,

There's nowhere to run away to,

It breaks you and breaks that very hope that made you,

Back to them friends that will cross you,

Growing up didn't mean a thing when it jumped you,

Back to not belonging in my home town,

Cause if you're not one then you'll never be,

And I was never one to never speak,

Back to them memories and nightmares,

And back to them same streets

Memories don't leave, they'll never go,

Forever eating at your soul,

Reach out to let go,

Reach out to let...

Memories don't leave they'll never go,

Forever eating at your soul,

Reach out to let go,

Reach out to let go...

To them wide open spaces,

Where I used to stand watching the day fly right by my face,

And, back to them b*tches and shops slum,

Over the counter checking everything I got,

Thinking am I thiefin' or what?

Get your bloody chief down;

Just to check the spots - standard procedure,

Just cause they don't know my mother's face.

Small town state of mind, where they been?

Say I'm f*ckin' race, and there's nowhere to escape

Back to sittin' on the bus as a kid by myself,

Waiting for change but that change never came,

Nah... nah that change never came,

Back to that place where I don't ever see the sun,

Mum, dad son lost in this Babylon,

I remember when it rained,

Used to look like it would never stop, no,

Memories don't leave, they'll never go,

Forever eating at your soul,

Reach out to let go,

Reach out to let...

Memories don't leave, they'll never go,

Forever eating at your soul,

Reach out to let go,

Reach out to let go...

Back to them days I remember all of it,

Back to that stage I remember all of it,

Back to that day, yeah I remember all of it,

Back to them corners, yeah I remember all of it,

Memories don't leave they'll never go,

Forever eating at your soul,

Reach out to let go,

Reach out to let...

Memories don't leave they'll never go,

Forever eating at your soul,

Reach out to let go,

Reach out to let go...
