Memories like the corners of my mind
Misty water colored memories of the way we were

Scattered pictures of the smiles we left behind
Smiles we gave to one another, of the way we were

*Oh, can you believe it was all so simple then
Or has time rewritten every line
Then if we have a chance to do it all again
Can we? Could we?*

Oh, oh, oh...

Scattered pictures of the smiles we left behind
Smiles we gave to one another, of the way we were

Looking back flipping through the pages, remembering the stages
Of my status, emotional
I search for ways to unlock the matrix
This mystery is driving me through multiple phases of analyzing
I lost in my mind state, this spot too hot, need ventilation
Facin' ill situations, I let imagination flow
With extraterrestrial rhyme styles
Causin' detrimental effects, before you can reflex
I'm mentally in laundromat state, never flat rate
My mind infiltrated with lust deceit and mad papes
My soul is restless, when MC's try to test this
Then I have to kick this, hectic, kind of dialectic
The illustrator verbalizing mental data
Words fly , causin' craters, I'm reaching for the respirator
Breathlessly, but with nice entry
And memories remain endlessly

*repeat

Memories, may we beautiful again, what's too painful to remember
We simply choose to forget, so it's the laughter
We'll remember, whenever, we'll remember, the way we, the way we were
