I remember my grandmother’s smile as she tended her garden, I remember the peace she found out there, I remember she came here in hopes of a better life, I remember, I won’t forget, maybe it’s nothing but I feel so old sometimes, cry as I might, it can’t shake away my fears, memories chasing me, it’s like I’m spinning out of control, if history teaches me, I wonder if I’m getting better at all

I remember how hard it has been inventing, dreaming up the new world, I remember the mistakes that I’ve already made, I remember my grandmother gave me hope that it is all getting better, I remember, I won’t forget, maybe it’s nothing but I feel so old sometimes, cry as I might, it can’t shake away my fears, memories chasing me, it’s like I’m spinning out of control, If history teaches me, I wonder if I’m getting better at all

hold me, I’m like a storm raging out of control, let me know there is still hope, the chance for peace, keep me working, dreaming and inspired, maybe one day I’ll wake up not feeling so tired, I want to, I need to remember, I want to, I need to remember, I want to, I need to remember, I want to, I need to remember
