Memory lane

A door closes, the locks are sealed, the voices remain
No breath taken, reliving stabs of the past
Resignation in fear
Just sigh and inhale, the air will harden
Trapped in your fake defence, you swallow

There's no way out, so close the way in
Build the wall, more will than heart

The voices, the fear, the oppression remains
Reliving, stabs of the past
It's for your soul to know
You'll have to go down Memory Lane

Burden over lives
Information stored so carefully
Time to live through, time to connect
The timeless to the physical, the local to the global
The constrained to the boundless, back and forth to within

The voices, the fear, the oppression remains
Reliving, stabs of the past
It's for your soul to know
You'll have to go down Memory Lane

There's no way out, so close the way in
Build the wall, more will than heart

Reason irrationally
Hold the truth in your hands
Refuse the resistance
Fold and cherish, feed the relief
It's for your soul to know
It's time for change, time to let go
