Celluloid Mind
Yes we all make mistakes, it's our
Natural state, our default condition and
Some are big some are small but the
Big ones hold on to us, keep on reminding us
Words you should have said. Things you could have done
Near death experience. Memories that stick to you
Record. Rewind. Replay. Watch it
Over again; see the choices you should have made
Record. Rewind. Replay. Relive
All of your greatest hits on constant repeat
And you wish you could just press delete
It's a blessing of sorts to have
Video playback hardwired in your cranium
And it can be a curse
Well we all have those times we'd prefer to obliterate
Some try alcohol. To forget it all
Take the pain away. Blur the memory
Record. Rewind. Replay. Watch it
Over again; see the choices you should have made
Record. Rewind. Replay. Relive
All of your greatest hits on constant repeat
And you wish you could just press delete
If you give me a choice
Then I'd rather have memory than face the alternative
Well the trick is to stick
To the times that you got it right, if you can swing it but
You're not in control, somewhere deep below
There's a masochist inside all of us
Record. Rewind. Replay. Watch it
Over again; see the choices you should have made
Record. Rewind. Replay. Relive
All of your greatest hits on constant repeat
And you wish you could just press delete
