BUG'S SONG

Matt's Challenge: Your First Memory

Title: Memories

Lyrics:

There were roses in the garden

My toys were on the lawn
My brother rode a bicycle
Watched closely by my mom
I toddled off the patio
I often wandered off
And quickly get corralled by
My sweetheart of a dog
These are the details
These are the memories
These are the moments always cut from documentaries
These are the details
These are the memories
That never stick
I was just a baby in the backyard
Learning one thing at a time
The shapes and colors turning
Into object ‘fore my eyes
It was an early autumn evening
The first I could recall
I crunch the leaves beneath my feet
My dad records it all
These are the details
These are the memories
These are the moments always cut from documentaries
These are the details
These are the memories
That never stick
They called me in for dinner but
Before I headed in
They handed me a cup of kibble
Filled up to the brim
I toddled to the doghouse
Thats when God, she hit record
My first memory is getting all my shit rocked by a bird
Can’t choose the details
Can’t choose the memories
Can’t choose the scars they leave so sudden, unexpectedly
Can’t choose the details
Can’t choose the memories
I wish we weren’t so primed to focus on upsetting things
Can’t choose the details
Can’t choose the memories
That seem to nest inside your head
The awful details
That form these memories
But if I could instead
I’d choose the details
The little memories
And make ‘em stick
