Memories fade but the scars still linger

During the last solstice when the days where long, I spent time in the Finnish archipelago, a place of solitude and freedom. During these days a reconnected with some songs of my childhood, and escaped modern life.

Memories fade by Tears for Fears, Album The Hurting 1983:

There's only need

I love your need

So much I'm losing me

I cannot see the reason for the Pain

With hungry joy

I'll be your toy

Just hoping you will play

Without hope my body starts to fail

Memories fade but the scars still linger

Goodbye my friend

Will I ever love again

Memories fade but the scars still linger

I cannot grow

I cannot move

I cannot fell my age

The vice like grip of tension holds me fast

Engulfed by you

What can I do

When History's my cage

Look foward to a future in the past

The more I talk

The more I say

The less you seem to hear

I'm speechless in a most peculiar way

Your mind is weak

Your need is great

And nothing is too dear

For you to use to take the Pain away

Memories Fade

No don't pretend you can justify the end

Memories fade but the scars still linger
