Love Always Remains - MGMT

Featured on MGMT`s first album "We (Dont) Care" in 2004 then being released on the "Time To Pretent" EP in 2005, it has stood out to me in many ways. First of all, the lyrics seem to have a different meaning to everyone, I think of it as being nostalgic, such as times with friends and also recognizing the innocence and the safety you felt as a child. Then there is the way that the song starts off simply then overlaps itself giving you the feeling of all your memories rushing around in your mind.

There's a place I'd like to go somewhere out west, 

It's not specific, 

And the pictures show it best. 

I know there's trees I know there's sand

 And I know there's grass, 

I know it's somewhere in the past. 

There's a girl out there who's lookin for it too, 

She's not sure when she'll go,

 Or exactly what she'll do. 

If I am doomed am I the first one or the last? 

Am I just someone from the past? 

No one has to hear

 The sound of people laughing at their fears

 And the ocean and sun are always there

To make you happy if you're feeling scared

 of the darkness. 

If I ever saw a ghost it'd change the way

I'

d think

I would'nt gasp for air if ever I did sink

I wouldnt struggle,

I'd just let it all out fast

And then start living in the past 

(No one has to hear)

If we hold the hand that rapes the hand,

(The sound of people laughing at their fears)

And everyone can feel the hand 

(And the ocean)

And nothings gonna change

(and sun are always there)

It could always be the time we're living in 

(To make you happy if you're feeling scared)

We'll never feel so safe again, 

(Of the darkness)

But love always remains,

(no one has to hear)

If we hold the hand that rapes the hand,

(the sound of people laughing at their fears)

And everyone can feel the hand

(And the ocean)

And nothing's gonna change,

(And sun are always there)

It could be the time we're living in,

(To make you happy if your feeling scared) 

We'll never feel so safe again,

(Of the darkness)

But love always remains,

The love always remains.

If we hold the hand that rapes the hand

And everyone can feel the hand,

And nothing's gonna change

It could be the time we're living in

we'll never feel so safe again,

But love always remains.

No one has to hear

The sound of people laughing at their fears

And the ocean and sun are always there
To make you happy if you're feeling scared

Blurry memories

Strange yet farmiliar places

Never letting go
