You Lost My Memory Lyrics - Skyclad

Unstoppable force and immovable object, 

repel one another when by chance colliding. 

The Brownian-Motion within this love potion, 

ensures our opinions are always dividing. 

I am from Mars my dear; 

you hail from Venus. 

A meeting star-crossed 

like the Sun and the Moon. 

Destined to let this cruel world 

come between us. 

Our last kiss eclipsed by a shadow at noon. 

A rose that is built 

out of music by moonlight; 

petals stained ruby with nightingale blood. 

Cast down in disgust 

to be crushed by a cart-wheel, 

because of mere trivia misunderstood.

We quest for a grail of illusive perfection, 

each hoping we'll find it some glorious day. 

Yet gaze with remorse at our jaded reflection, 

that looks like The Picture Of Dorian Gray. 

[Chorus:] 

Siamese Twins who were joined at the heart. 

Love's an affliction without a known remedy. 

Blunt-bladed fate 

deemed to cleave us apart; 

Emotional surgery pays no indemnity. 

Some seek release with effete anaesthesia, 

others adapt to the role of sworn enemy. 

You found nepenthe in cheap, sweet amnesia; 

It was far easier losing my memory.

And the nightingale sang: 

"Sing love's lament 

with a thorn at your breast. 

Impaled by her barb; 

cruel and unforgiving. 

A million dead poets would gladly attest; 

heart-ache's a keepsake 

to remind us we're living." 

[Chorus:] 

Siamese Twins who were joined at the heart. 

Love's an affliction without a known remedy. 

Blunt-bladed fate 

deemed to cleave us apart; 

Emotional surgery pays no indemnity. 

Some seek release with effete anaesthesia, 

others adapt to the role of sworn enemy. 

You found nepenthe in cheap, sweet amnesia; 

It was far easier losing my memory.
