ELECTRIC SUNSHINE CULT

Hextide - Wanna See [ESC001 PRODUCER CHALLENGE]

Evil or Good

[Instrumental]
[Instrumental]
[Piano]

[Intro]
(ooh-up)

[Verse 1]
I try not to let the memories fade.
You're not here, and I feel you.
I can find you anywhere.
I can smell you in my home.
I miss you. I miss you so much.
Moments remind me, music reminds me.
It's almost unbearable.

[Pre-Chorus]
Memories hurts

[Refrain]
Why did you break our trust?
Why did you take my strength away?

[Verse 2]
I did everything for you. I would never have let you down.
You just left, and I sit at home, feeling lost and alone.
You'll never find your way back to me.

[Pre-Chorus]
Memories hurts

[Instrumental]
[Piano]

[Pre-Refrain]
Why did you leave me?
Why are you doing this to me?
What have I done wrong?

[Verse 3]
My love for you was genuine.
You only used me.
You're not telling me the truth.
I'm still in the dark, unable to grasp what's happened.

[Pre-Chorus]
Memories hurts

[Instrumental]
[Piano]

[Refrain]
Why did you break our trust?
Why did you take my strength away?

[Verse 4]
I'm letting you go so I can recover.
Time will heal me and open my eyes.
There's no point in getting lost.

[Pre-Chorus]
Memories hurts

[Instrumental]
[Piano]

[Outro]
ohh ohh ohh
my life will go on
ohh ohh ohh
fuck memories
ohh ohh ohh

[Piano]
