What I don't remember (lyrics)

Make a smile with eyes shut wildly
I daze over and over trying to form
Images of days I never saw but have been shown
Make it last in my brain tonight
I couldn't explain it if I tried
Pictures mean nothing without the memory

For her arms, they reached out once to me
But no, I don't believe, I don't believe

What I don't remember kills me
What I won't see brings no relief
What I don't remember kills me
What I'll never know will rest at ease

Many miles traveled since then and distances (distanced us)
But wasn't there anything left for me
No, just talk of what was, what I never--
Make it last, make it last in my brain tonight
A thousand words are not at my side
And I've got not a thing, not a memory

For her arms, they reached out once to me
But no, I don't believe, I don't believe

What I don't remember kills me
What I won't see brings no relief
What I don't remember kills me
What I'll never know will rest at ease

They can tell me over again
How I was there and life's just not fair
But I know my mind and how it beckons
It says nothing's there, it says nothing's there
I shouldn't worry over what never happened apparently
But I know...they say...I feel...
Like it did...

For her arms, they reached out once to me
But no--no I believe, I believe!

What I don't remember kills me
What I won't see brings no relief
What I don't remember kills me
What I'll never know will rest
What I don't remember kills me
What I won't see brings no relief
What I don't remember kills me
What I'll never know will rest
Rest in Peace...Rest in Peace...Rest...In Peace
