A Passing Feeling - The Thermals

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
