Oliver Francis - Memory Loss lyrics

Something in the shadows
I can see it shift and shape
It's in the walls when I'm lying wide awake
Is the situation better if
I take myself away?
Rewind, erase every memory of my face
I'd have heard you in the echo
Of a demon's beating wings
Another fleeting memory that I
Could never reach
It was scrawled on your headboard
That's when you saw me
Fall from the top floor down to the concrete

Every day I cannot stand to look at myself
And if you really wanna know I
Wish I was someone else
I do the same old things, no
I don't need your help
Because it's all okay when
I'm free fallin'
Delicately reach into your memory's core
I'm erasing everything you have of
Me and some more
'Cause I won't exist if
You take these sedatives

I'll be your memory loss when
It’s all too much
Take the right pills, you can forget us
It's almost like it all never happened
I'll be your memory loss when
It’s all too much
Take the right pills, you can forget us
'Cause love is just a chemical reaction

I can feel you breathing
We were always interlinked
I feel the steady pulse of the machines
In this artificial consciousness where
Everything's a dream
The fall, the spring, every season in between
Heard a whisper through the smoke
They saying "come and fill your lungs"
I got bloody sheets and pillowcases
Locked up in my trunks
It was scrawled on your headboard
That's when you saw me
Fall from the top floor down to the concrete

Every day I cannot stand to look at myself
And if you really wanna know I
Wish I was someone else
I do the same old things, no
I don't need your help
Because it's all okay when
I'm free fallin'
Delicately reach into your memory's core
I'm erasing everything you have of
Me and some more
'Cause I'm losing grip
Slipping through your fingertips

I'll be your memory loss when
It’s all too much
Take the right pills, you can forget us
It's almost like it all never happened
I'll be your memory loss when
It’s all too much
Take the right pills, you can forget us
'Cause love is just a chemical reaction

You watch me fall apart
And every single breath
Your lungs might break
Only stretchin' further than my wings
I fall headfirst
And when the clock strikes twelve
I erase myself for good

Memory loss when it’s all too much
Take the right pills, you can forget us
It's almost like it all never happened
I'll be your memory loss when
It’s all too much
Take the right pills, you can forget us
'Cause love is just a chemical reaction
I'll be your memory loss when it’s all much
Take the right pill so you can forget us
'Cause love is just a chemical reaction

Love is just a chemical reaction
Love is just a chemical reaction
