Amnesia 5 Seconds Of Summer

I drove by all the places we used to hang out getting wastedI thought about our last kiss, how it felt the way you tastedAnd even though your friends tell me you're doing fineAre you somewhere feeling lonely even though he's right beside you?When he says those words that hurt you, do you read the ones I wrote you?Sometimes I start to wonder, was it just a lie?If what we had was real, how could you be fine?' Cause I'm not fine at allI remember the day you told me you were leavingI remember the make-up running down your faceAnd the dreams you left behind you didn't need themLike every single wish we ever madeI wish that I could wake up with amnesiaAnd forget about the stupid little thingsLike the way it felt to fall asleep next to youAnd the memories I never can escape.

'Cause I'm not fine at allThe pictures that you sent me they're still living in my phoneI'll admit I like to see them, I'll admit I feel aloneAnd all my friends keep asking why I'm not aroundIt hurts to know you're happy, yeah, it hurts that you've moved onIt's hard to hear your name when I haven't seen you in so longIt's like we never happened, was it just a lie?If what we had was real, how could you be fine?'

Amnesia Lyrics

I drove by all the places we used to hang out getting wasted
I thought about our last kiss, how it felt the way you tasted
And even though your friends tell me you're doing fine
Are you somewhere feeling lonely even though he's right..

    VERSE 1
    (((((I drove by all the places we used to hang out getting wasted;
    I thought about our last kiss, how it felt the way you tasted.
    And even though your friends tell me you're doing fine,
    Are you somewhere feeling lonely even though he's right beside you?;
    When he says those words that hurt you, do you read the ones I wrote you?)))))
    At the beginning, he is remembering memories from their relationship, but he quickly brings himself back to the reality of it, and tries asking your friends, only to get a short, general answer of 'you're doing fine.' He kinda wonders if your friends are just trying to keep you away from her. He wants to know whether or not the guy that you are with now makes you happy, and if he doesn't, if you try and make yourself feel better by reading little notes, or text that he sent to you before your relationship ended.
    CHORUS
    (((((Sometimes I start to wonder, was it just a lie?
    If what we had was real, how could you be fine?
    'Cause I'm not fine at all.
    I remember the day you told me you were leaving;
    I remember the make-up running down your face.
    And the dreams you left behind, you didn't need them;
    Like every single wish we ever made.
    I wish that I could wake up with amnesia,
    And forget about the stupid little things;
    Like the way it felt to fall asleep next to you,
    And the memories I never can escape.
    'Cause I'm not fine at all.)))))
    He is now wondering if you were just leading him on, because if you loved him like he loved you, you wouldn't be happy with someone else, you would be torn apart.
    He is now thinking back to the day that you broke-up, and how torn apart you were then. You were crying as if you were forced to leave. But he remembers that together, you had plans, and dreams, and you just left that behind when you left him. He just wishes that he could wake up, and not remember anything, so he wouldn't have to deal with the pain and depression that was caused when you left him. He just wants to forget what he calls 'stupid little things', but on the inside they were his favourite things about being with you.
    VERSE 2
    (((((The pictures that you sent me they're still living in my phone.
    I'll admit I like to see them; I'll admit I feel alone.
    And all my friends keep asking why I'm not around; It hurts to know you're happy, yeah, it hurts that you've moved on.
    It's hard to hear your name when I haven't seen you in so long.
    It's like we never happened, was it just a lie?
    If what we had was real, how could you be fine?
    'Cause I'm not fine at all.)))))
    He is now remembering more about the relationship. Little pictures that you would send back and forth, inside jokes,things of that sort. He is admitting that he tortures himself by looking at all of this because he knows that you're what you call 'happy' with this new guy. He tells you that it is really hard to hear your name, because people don't realize just what they're saying. To him you were everything, but to them, your're just a person, a friend, a mediocre acquaintance.
    He is wondering if your relationship really ever did happen, or did he just make a fool of himself, falling head-over-heels in love with you, only to be played like a chess piece.
    CHORUS
    BRIDGE
    (((((If today I woke up with you right beside me,
    Like all of this was just some twisted dream;
    I'd hold you closer than I ever did before.
    And you'd never slip away;
    And you'd never hear me say.)))))
    He is wishing that all of this is just a terrible nightmare that he is having, because it is tearing him apart. So when he wakes up, he will hold you a little closer to show you that he is worth your time, no matter what. if he wakes up, he never wants for you to hear him say..
    CHORUS
    END
    ((((('Cause I'm not fine at all.
    No, I'm really not fine at all.
    Tell me this is just a dream,
    'Cause I'm really not fine at all..)))))
    He is just hoping that all of this is a nightmare because he doesn't want to see a world without being with you. He isn't fine, and you're the only thing that can fix him.

    This is the kinda song to listen to if you are missing someone or have a broken heart. This song is defiantly about loss and despair. Amnesia is about remembering someone that has chosen someone else over him. Its about wishing that it was just a terrible nightmare and that his girlfriend was right next to him. Its a sad and depressing song.

    I saw on tumblr a really great interpretation, it's about a boy who lost his love. She was depressed and killed herself.
    'Are you somewhere feeling lonely, even though he is right beside you? When he says those words that hurt you, do you read the ones I wrote you?' It's about her demons talking to her and tearing her appart.
    He wished he could wake up with amnesia to just forget about the fact she is actually gone.
    'The dreams you left behind, you didn't need them. Like every single wish we ever made.' Is about the future they planned together.
    'If today I woke up with you right beside me, like all of this was just some twisted dream. I'd hold you closer than I ever did before and you'd never slip away.' Is about how he would try to make her stay
    I thought it was a good interpretation.

    Amnesia is definitely one of my favourite sad songs to cry to, Every lyric has a significant meaning
    the chorus of course : i wish that i could wake up with amnesia and forgot all the stupid little things ( personally this lyric tells me how in love the couple was, and how every small thing was so important am memorable, when she left, the small things hurt even more because it’s everywhere, and he wishes he could forget all of them)
    the lyric ; it hurts to know you’re happy yeah it hurts that you moved on ( just shows how the girl hurt him and he can see how happy she is and how he wishes it was him)
    and the memories that i cant escape cuz i’m not fine at all ( he wants to be happy for her but every little thing reminds him of her and he would rather forget everything they had together )

    This song is about a guy and the girl he was dating had to move away. But then she meets another guy and ends their long distance relationship. He wondered if she really loved him because she left too. She sends him pictures and he sees her new home. He wishes that he could wake up with Amnesia, which could be her name, or the disease to forget about how she is now gone. He wishes it was all a dream and says he will never be fine saying he would hold her closer if he ever woke up.

    A romance that started at a young age in a small town where a lot of memories were made. .for two teens drinking two much and being 'young and dumb' Maybe something happened. She somehow got amnesia. Hes wondering how she could forget him if their love was real because he cant stop thinking of her.

    Lab rats are also often used in scientific experiments, where their behaviour and instincts are studied when exposed to specific stimuli or circumstances.But if you just enjoy those four legged pets with a fondness for cheese, give our free online lab rat games a try. It is a common insult among many groups, especially those with a criminal bent, ironically enough. Play online games with the bigger, less popular versions of mice, who have been unjustly blamed for the plague.Rats are rodents with a long tail and tend to live near or around humans. They are as small as mice or big fat rats that live in the sewers. In many cultures rats are synonymous for a lack of loyalty, of low moral standards and highly selfish behaviour.

    I think its about a guy who really loved some one and they had been together for along time and then she met some one else and she cheated.I think this because she was crying when she told him that she was leaving.
    This song still makes me cry every time!!!!

    I think the boy loved the girl, but she left him, for someone else, and he's hoping she's happy with the other guy

    I think the meaning of the song means that Calum is saying he loved someone but he lost them to another guy.
    I also think Luke is saying he really misses that girl.
    Oh by the way,my stepsister missed so many years of my life, i blamed her, then she got mad at me, and didn't see me for over 5 years. But my mom,stopped my stepsister from seeing me when i was 5 years old.
    My stepsister came back into my life when i was 12, and she barely knows me, i have every right to say i can't like my mom.

    This song makes me cry crocodile tears! I have a younger sister that was made move away & we were so devastated. This song came out a year after we were separated. I relate to the deep love & feeling lonely & confused how easy it seemed to me she was able to move on like we never were close & didn't ever makeep plans for our future. We've reunited & our bond is growing stronger daily. This song will always have a special place in my heart. It got me through some lonely heartbreaking times.I even got 'Alright Though' with the 5SOS emblem under it. I suffered a spinal cord injury from a horrible car accident. 5SOS love of fam & encouragement to live & love & don't harm yourself was truly an approach to youth through music that defiantly changed youths lives all over the world. These young men should definitely be aknowlaged for sending good positive messages to their fans. The Beatles & 5SOS sent the most powerful positive love to their fans in my opinion. I love our boys & they forever will be on my play list! Thanks for saving fans! We love saving bands!

    I think Amnesia is about all the memories that linger in the backs of the minds and the feelings of people who lost somebody close to them.

    OH MY GOSH I LOVE THIS SONG!!!
    The first time I heard this I burst out crying. Still do.
    Anyways, I feel like he's trying to say that she broke his heart and he keeps holding on to these good memories, holding on this hope, and it's tearing him apart inside. He's beginning to question what state their relationship was in before, if she ever truly loved him.

    I think this song was dedicated to Aleisha, Luke's ex girl friend. And this song is about Luke and Aleisha when they had to be separated because Luke had to go on tours and Aleisha had to stay.

    I've loved everyone's interpretations and agree to a lot but the ones about suicide don't stick, nobody died its obvious.
    'Even though your friends tell me your doing fine'
    This indicates that the person is still alive. He sings about his memories with the girl and the relationship was special to him.
    He's wondering if she is actually alright, if she's grieving like he is. He starts to believe that everything was just a lie and wishes that he could have Amnesia so he can not live through the pain of his heartbreak.

    I think amnesia is about a girl the boy dated and that she had to move to a different city and she found a new guy and she stop talking to him and he asked her friends if they still talk and they do and asked how she is doing but they say she is doing fine and he wish he wake up with amnesia (amnesia is not her name talking about the disease)this is just my interpretation ik this isn't about the 5sos boys they didn't even write this song I hope this help
