The Thermals
"A Passing Feeling"

Memory wise, memory flies
Memory barely satisfies
The past steals
It's a passing feeling

Memory wise, memory flies
Memory rarely satisfies
The past tense
Tense and bleeding

You can choke
Or you can focus
I wanna forget
I don't wanna forget
I don't wanna forget

Memory knows, memory goes
Memory dulling, but I'm learning slow
The passing heals
The past is healing

Memory knows, memory stops
The hum is gone when the power's off
The passing heals
The past is healing

And you can choke on it
Or you can focus
I wanna forget
I don't wanna forget
I don't wanna forget

If you have no wishes
You can still have an opinion
Everybody's got one

If you have the free time
I'm sure there's something we can agree on
When you're passing the blame
No one remembers the same

Memory wise, memory flies
Memory barely satisfies
The past steals
It's a passing feeling

Memory knows, memory stops
The hum is gone when the power's off
The passing heals
The past is healing

And you can focus
Or you can smoke it
I wanna forget
And I don't wanna forget

I don't wanna forget
I don't wanna forget
I don't wanna forget
