David Bazan - How I Remember lyrics

rate me

I go out in public now

More than you might think

But only after pills and drinks

That's how I remember

Then if I see any girl

I've ever met before

I run like hell for the door

That's how I remember

Memory records

Selected shorts and interpretations

Then later plays them back

As gospel fact

That's how I remember

That's how I remember

With one eye open

You can focus like a camera

On whomever you are capturing

Without exception I prefer it as a way to document

The objects of my interest

Red and yellow, black and white

Are precious in his eyes

But who he roots for in a fight

That's how I remember

Every time I find a girl

Beaten, gagged, and bound

I let her go and write it down

That's how I remember

That's how I remember
