Distant Memory Lyrics by Nell Röntgen

Distant Memory

2022

I breathe in, I breathe out
Right here and right now
Sometimes that still gets hard

I'm still not perfect
But see my improvement
I always gave up before

But now
If the place I'm at isn't in your arms
I don't even mind
Yeah, I walk away and I let it go
I'm a thousand times better

I live my new reality
Where you're not on my mind
What owned my life has faded away
I finally see it from above
Now I don't even miss your love

I look at your pictures
And I don't feel nothing
That still gets me every time

I think of my future
And you're nowhere in it
That used to feel painful before

But now
If the songs you sing aren't sung 'bout me
Baby, that's okay
If I fall apart and you're not around
I'll make it on my own

I live my new reality
Where you're not on my mind
What owned my life has faded away
I finally see it from above
Now I don't even miss your love

I walk on, I walk on, I walk on
It's a scream that still hides in the dark
But it doesn't take a hold of me no more
I go on, I go on, I go on
Step on all my insecurities
They'll remain a distant memory from now
I walk on, I walk on, I walk on
There's a light that guides me through the dark
For the first time I feel hope inside my heart
I go on, I go on, I go on
Step on everything you took from me
You'll remain a distant memory

I live my new reality (Yeah)
Where you're not on my mind (No, you're not)
What owned my life has faded away (It's faded away)
I finally see it from above (From above)
Now I don't even miss your love (Miss your love)
Yeah, I finally see it from above (From above)
Now I don't even miss your love

I hope I'll stay strong so that we'll remain
A distant memory
