Johnny Dissent - Memories & Melodies Lyrics

I swim in a sea of aborted melodies
I live in a grave with the bones of the deceased
In a crypt full of secrets and words no one wrote down
In this house full of songs that will never be sung

Lets sing the praises of the dead
The songs we've forgotten but will never forget
Lets raise a glass to those empty melodies
That meant so much to you and me when we were just kids

This is a song for all the broken verses
All the choruses sung once and then forgotten
All the songs lost on the way to fame
All the memories that just faded away

Lets sing the praises of the dead
The songs we've forgotten but will never forget
Lets raise a glass to those empty melodies
That meant so much to you and me when we were just kids

We're just the sum of our broken parts
The songs long forgotten still live in our hearts
They made us grow wild and made us grow angry
And a punk rock song won't change the world
But it sure as hell changed me
