Babalos - Memories lyrics

What is life you see?
What is life you see, except there is a memory?
So the course of time is really
Like the course of a ship in the ocean
It leaves behind it, a wake
And that tells us where the ship has been
In just the same way as the past and our memory of the past
Tells us what we have done

We are memories

The matter is: It all starts right now

That memory has got you hooked
And holds you to the past
And it holds you to death
Now the important thing to remember
Is that the wake doesn't drive the ship
So if you insist on being determinated by the past
That's your game
Because the fact of the matter is
It all starts right now

We are memories

The matter is: It all starts right now
