Lyrics by Newgekko music.newgekko.com // "I write it down… so you don’t forget." "I keep the ashes warm." We stitched blankets from torn clothes Cooked hope on dead streetlights Made music out of leaks and echoes And danced like no cameras survived They sold you futures you never held Wrapped your hunger in plastic spells But I found truth in rust and skin In broken things, where love begins Souviens-toi // what they erased The taste of rain, your mother’s face Souviens-toi // before the buy Before they turned your tears to ads My notebook’s full of outlawed dreams Of names they turned to hashtags Of words we weren’t allowed to feel So I wrote them, soft and ragged Souviens-toi… erased… I stayed… I stayed… "I kept a spoon, a voice, a thread" "I kept the silence you left for dead" "You wanted more, I wanted real" "So I stayed here to learn to feel" Souviens-toi // the earth, the pain The way we lived without a name Souviens-toi // the breath, the sound Of being more than what they count "I remember, so you don’t forget."
