I'm a sucker for memories
I feen for memories
I live for memories
I capture memories
Memories is all I have when I don't feel like I have enough of me or don't feel like I'm anything at all
Just a simple thought of the good times the times I felt free
The times I genuinely smiled and never frowned
The times I heard the happiness and joy from laughters
The times I laid back and soaked into the moments of serenity
Soaked into hugs I received
Soaked into the love that was thrown at me and oh my goodness it felt so good to be held to feel liked, to feel like I'm enough and to feel like I matter
Oh how I wish I can relive moments relive memories
Relive the times I felt the most alive
So excuse me if you see me pick up my phone to record
Excuse me if I drop everything to capture this very moment of us being alive
To capture this moment of us being ourselves
I know it's annoying, people told me to live in the moment but I live in the moment when I look back at these videos and photos
So excuse me if I just want to capture this very moment
I feel empty when the fun stops I feel so damn empty where the good times I was just enjoying comes to an end
I get attached to feeling free
I get so attached to the feeling of peace and when I feel it slowly stripping away, all I have left is the memories and the past emotions attached to the moment of how this event made me feel
I keep memories close to my heart because at times it's all I got that will keep a smile on me
I keep memories close to my heart because I remember every little thing that makes me happy so if someone doesn't remember a special moment just count on me to remember every detail on how it made us feel and why it was important to me
I'm attached to my camera because that's what I look back during night time where the sadness kicks in and I feel like I have nothing to live for and just a click of a photo, a click of a video is what reminds me that I am love, I am special, and I am on someone mind
I'm a sucker for memories
I feen for memories
I live for memories
I capture memories
Memories is all I have when I don't feel like I have enough of me or don't feel like I'm anything at all
