Moments fleeting Recall lost Awake or sleeping? Reminiscence fading out An idealist fantasy So drunk upon the sweet nectar Of euphoric denial And you'll sift through the ashes Of the want and the lust And you'll find as time disaligns And the past is crushed... Memory turns to dust The memory turns to dust Through the want and the lust You'll try to deny the demise In the end was just So memory turns to dust Mirrored anguish As a gaze of pain Projects a reflection just as broken As the source And you'll sift through the ashes Of the want and the lust And you'll find as time disaligns And the past is crushed... Memory turns to dust The memory turns to dust Through the want and the lust You'll try to deny the demise In the end was just So memory turns to dust Seek to find, yet never see Puerility justified To fight all belief And you'll pick up the pieces Of the love and the trust And the mind, by design, becomes blind And confined by disgust... So memories turn to dust... You'll find as time disaligns And the past is crushed... Memories turn to dust Turn to dust The memory turns to dust We turn to dust
