"Memories" lyrics

YUNGBLUD & WILLOW Lyrics

"Memories"

I wish I could just let go
Of all the memories I know
Of all the memories I know
But they're still stuck in my brain

Every time I fall asleep, I know I'll wake up alone
I'll wake up alone
Dreams of you, wrap around my throat
I think I'm gonna choke, I think I'm gonna choke

Running, running, running, running though the dark
Watch me run a little more
'Cause when I said forever, I meant forever, now

I wish I could just let go
Of all the memories I know
Of all the memories I know
But they're still stuck in my brain
I wish I could just let go
Of all the memories I know
Of all the memories I know
But they're still stuck in my brain

I never wanted to cry
I always thought I would make it right
But now I'm stuck inside this shame instead
"Pontificating hypocrite" is what you said
When my heart breaks just a little bit I wanna drop dead
I didn't wanna concede
Or call my fantasies make-believe
Holding tightly to the task at hand
When I really should be focusing to learn and understand
But I bury all the tragedy with sand

Running, running, running, running to my car
I can't fucking cry in front of her
When I said forever, I meant forever, now

I wish I could just let go
Of all the memories I know
Of all the memories I know
But they're still stuck in my brain
I wish I could just let go
Of all the memories I know
Of all the memories I know
But they're still stuck in my brain

I wish I could just let go (Just let go)
Of all the memories,I know (I know)
Of all the memories I know
But they're still stuck in my brain

YUNGBLUD told the SPIN magazine about the inspiration behind "Memories" released on the 6th of May, 2022, "I've had an abusive upbringing. And that's why I believe I've connected to so many people, because the message—ever since the beginning with Yungblud—is no matter how you are brought up, no matter what color you are, what gender, what sexuality, whatever you are, you have a right to be loved. You have a right to be yourself."
WILLOW shared her experience with the recording of this track in an interview with SPIN published on the 2nd of May, 2022, "It's very rare that I can connect vocally on such a level with a male musician. He is such a talented artist that it's very easy to let the ideas flow and to let the melodies and the lyrics kind of come, because there's really no stress when it comes to structure. We just figure it out and it's always fun." She is also featured in the song's music video.
