“The more beautiful a memory is, the more painful it can become”

This is following on from the theme of 'The Garden of Escapism', a part II if you like. I hope you enjoy it as much as the first one :)

You were born to be real, not be perfect. You’re alive to be you, not be what someone else wants you to be. While you’re busy looking for the perfect person, you’ll probably miss the imperfect person who could make you perfectly happy.

Moreover, the imperfect person who could make you happy could be you.

Every imperfection you have makes you who you are. I think it’s the imperfections that make things beautiful, and being happy doesn’t mean that everything is perfect.

The basis of this song is to continue the theme of not letting other people influence you too much, however I thought this time I should incorporate the concept of memory into the song. Looking back on ourselves, and thinking about what we have done previously is something we do regularly. I wanted to make the song seem like we were moving on, this is why I have incorporated the sounds of children playing, the old movie projector to evoke an audible aesthetic of looking back on memories.

I will finish this synopsis with a quote from Jane Austen: “Perhaps it is our imperfections that make us so perfect for one another”

See you next time :)

- Monty

Lyrics:

If I try to close my eyes I see you. 
and that's a good memory too.

The world we had has shattered
and you’re not here that’s all that matters.

I won’t expose your imperfections. 
Even if I'm alone.
What do you see in your reflection?
You weren’t there, I should have known.
