Lyrics from Derivakat's Twitch stream (July 12, 2023)
[Verse 1]
They say everybody dies twice
The first's your body's demise
The second is the last time someone remembers you
So, if I never speak my mind
Blank white pages, empty lines
When it comes, the day I die
What is it I leave behind?
[Chorus]
Just like a cure, just like a remedy
Searching for something to live beyond my days
Writing myself into our history
Showing the world the reality in my mind
I'll be a memory
Let me stay with you forever and always
Before I go, I'll leave a legacy
Stuck in your head like a melody one last time
[Verse 2]
Would I be washed away?
Memories left to decay
If I was never brave enough to say what I want to say
'Cause all this fear that stays inside
Keeps my memories confined
Don't forget me, don't rewind
Find my reason, find my rhyme
[Chorus]
Just like a cure, just like a remedy
Searching for something to live beyond my days
Writing myself into our history
Showing the world the reality in my mind
I'll be a memory
Let me stay with you forever and always
Before I go, I'll leave a legacy
Stuck in your head like a melody one last time
[Bridge]
Songs I write are the mark I leave
All my feelings, my hopes and dreams
Past and present, who I'll be
Scream it loud, are you hearing me?
[Chorus]
Just like a cure, just like a remedy
Searching for something to live beyond my days
Writing myself into our history
Showing the world the reality in my mind
I'll be a memory
Let me stay with you forever and always
Before I go, I'll leave a legacy
Stuck in your head like a melody one last time
[Instrumental Outro]
