This may never start
We could fall apart
And I’d be your memory
Lost your sense of fear
Feelings insincere
Can I be your memory?

[Chorus]
So get back, back, back to where we lasted
Just like I imagine
I could never feel this way
So get back, back, back to the disaster
My heart’s beating faster
Holding on to feel the same
[Verse 2]
This may never start
I’ll tear us apart
Can I be your enemy?
Losing half a year
Waiting for you here
I’d be your anything
[Chorus]
So get back, back, back to where we lasted
Just like I imagine
I could never feel this way
So get back, back, back to the disaster
My heart’s beating faster
Holding on to feel the same
[Bridge]
This may never start
Tearing out my heart
And I’d be your memory
Lost your sense of fear
Feelings disappeared
Can I be your memory?
[Chorus]
So get back, back, back to where we lasted
Just like I imagine
I could never feel this way
So get back, back, back to the disaster
My heart’s beating faster
Holding on to feel the same
[Outro]
This may never start
We could fall apart
And I’d be your memory
Lost your sense of fear
Feelings insincere
Can I be your memory?

The Lyrics
The lyrics of “Memory” tell a story of a relationship that may never have a chance to start or may fall apart. It expresses the desire to be remembered by a former lover, even if the feelings shared were insincere. The chorus speaks of longing to go back to the time they were together, even if it ended in disaster. The bridge expresses the pain of tearing out one’s heart and wanting to be remembered. The song ends with the question of whether the singer can be the memory that the other person holds on to.

I could relate to the desire to hold on to the memories and the hope that maybe things could go back to the way they were. The catchy melody and energetic pop-punk sound of the song added to its impact, making it a memorable song that I could listen to on repeat.
