Memory is an important thing
Watching all the holes it brings
No one thinks that it will ever go away
Until someone close to you leads the way

I said,"Dad,I am your son."..then he asked who I was
I remember how he used to be/i remember the love
But now he doesn't remember me/as sad as that can be
Never knew an evil like Alzheimers disease
Now I take solace that he is mentally at peace

A dark tunnel that runs through the mind
A straight journey to what you will find
Running through oblivion/would you feel obliged
To sit back and judge or come along for the ride

A demise or a downfall
Just fell down the stairs and my car just stalled
30 years in Alaska/I can't fell my balls
A situation played out like I wasn't there at all
24 hours of daylight/no need to be scared

Lifted up an igloo and damn near got a hernia
Turned blue,could it be the hypothermia
Looking like the northern lights
Here comes winter,a full 9 months of night

The water is freezing but the ice is still loose
Went to 711 and was mauled by a moose
Its 50 below and my pipes like to freeze
Don't have that problem,now that I'm in Cali

In a land that is so plastic and fake
Where there are dreams to sell and souls to take
I don't want to miss the night/but it's funny
Can't even get into the club but they still take your money

Walking down Hollywood Blvd with stars on each side
Feeling misplaced being the jeans and tshirt guy
Everybody wears sunglasses all the time
Is it because they are cool or because it covers up lines

Just when I though the madness would stop
I seen a guy walking down the street wearing socks and flipflops
And a girl that's real sexy but she loves raw food
And all I want to say is,"are you gonna cook that,dude?"

As a kid I was told,"Don't let life pass you by"
Now it seems to pass so fast no matter how hard I try
So thankful to be alive and I take pride in the truth
Life is good but could I be missing you?

I always thought that age wouldn't curb me
I remember freaking out the day I turned thirty
Became stronger after every heartbreak
Learned alot of lessons from the mistakes that I made

With all I am grateful for there is one thing I need
Someone who to enjoy life with/someone that sees me for me
I know you are out there/i know that much is true
But now I ask the question,could it be you?
