Saw the demonstration
on remembrance day
Lest we forget the lesson
enshrined in funeral clay
History is never written
by those who've lost
The defeated must bear witness
to our collective memory loss


With every generation comes
another memory lapse
See the demonstrations of
failing to learn from our past
We live in the dreamtime
Nothing seems to last
Can you really plan a future
When you no longer have a past


Memories fall from the trees
Amnesia
Memories like autumn leaves


If we are subject to
empirical minds
I wonder what lies beyond
our memory's confines
If memory is the true sum
of who we are
May your children know the truth
and shine like the brightest star


Memories, help me see
Amnesia
Memories, set me free


All my love and all my kisses
Sweet Mnemosyne
Sweet Mnemosyne
All my love and all my kisses
Sweet Mnemosyne
Sweet Mnemosyne
