Doesn't Remind Me Lyrics

I walk the streets of Japan till I get lost
'Cause it doesn't remind me of anything
With a graveyard tan, carrying a cross
Yeah, it doesn't remind me of anything

I like studying faces in the parking lot
'Cause it doesn't remind me of anything
I like driving backwards in the fog
'Cause it doesn't remind me of anything

The things that I've loved, things that I've lost
Things I've held sacred that I've dropped
I won't lie no more, you can bet
I don't want to learn what I'll need to forget

I like gypsy moths and radio talk
'Cause it doesn't remind me of anything
I like gospel music and canned applause
'Cause it doesn't remind me of anything

I like colorful clothing in the sun
'Cause it doesn't remind me of anything
I like hammering nails and speaking in tongues
'Cause it doesn't remind me of anything

The things that I've loved, things that I've lost
Things I've held sacred that I've dropped
I won't lie no more, you can bet
I don't want to learn what I'll need to forget

Bend and shape me
I love the way you are
Slow and sweetly
Like never before
Calm and sleeping
We won't stir up the past
So discreetly
We won't look back

The things that I've loved, things that I've lost
Things I've held sacred that I've dropped
I won't lie no more, you can bet
I don't want to learn what I'll need to forget

I like throwing my voice and breaking guitars
'Cause it doesn't remind me of anything
I like playing in the sand, what's mine is ours
'If it doesn't remind me of anything

What is the Meaning of Doesn't Remind Me?

In a world where we're often haunted by the ghosts of our past, Audioslave spins a tale of selective amnesia. This song is an anthem for the escapist in all of us, seeking solace in experiences that don't dredge up painful memories. The lyrics paint a picture of someone consciously choosing to engage with things that are devoid of nostalgic triggers. It's like saying, "I'll take my coffee black today, no sugar - I'm on a diet from my own history." This isn't just about forgetting; it's about not wanting to learn what you'll need to forget. It's about bending and shaping oneself into something new, untouched by the past. So next time you find yourself wandering aimlessly in Japan or studying faces in a parking lot, remember - it's okay if it doesn't remind you of anything!
