Memento Mori

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Precious moments to remember, some we'd rather forget Moments that we treasure, moments that we regret I wanna make new memories not obsess over old I wanna live my history in the stories told [Pre-Chorus 1] You will never relive this moment No you will never be young again You're forever growing older So enjoy the time you spend [Chorus] Thе memories of the dеad are long forgotten Their bodies will lie stagnant and rotten A grim reminder of a forgotten memory I am my own personal memento mori The memories of the dead are long forgotten Their bodies will lie stagnant and rotten A grim reminder of a forgotten memory I am my own personal memento mori [Verse 2] Morbid irony, nostalgia for youth You curate your history by bending the truth You wish away your days 'til you have none left Empty on the inside, yet still full of regret [Pre-Chorus 2] Places filled with memories I don't want to have This past is not my future and my future's not my past [Chorus] The memories of the dead are long forgotten Their bodies will lie stagnant and rotten A grim reminder of a forgotten memory I am my own personal memento mori The memories of the dead are long forgotten Their bodies will lie stagnant and rotten A grim reminder of a forgotten memory I am my own personal memento mori [Bridge] You only exist whilst you survive For you do not live where your body will lie Celebrate whilst you are alive Remember that you have to die You only exist whilst you survive For you do not live where your body will lie Celebrate whilst you are alive Remember that you have to die [Chorus] The memories of the dead are long forgotten Their bodies will lie stagnant and rotten A grim reminder of a forgotten memory I am my own personal memento mori The memories of the dead are long forgotten Their bodies will lie stagnant and rotten A grim reminder of a forgotten memory I am my own personal memento mori
