So We Won’t Forget

The song opens with an ethereal chorus that instantly sets the tone for the emotional journey of the listener. The repetition of 'so we won't forget' echoes like a mantra, urging us to remember the past. As we delve into the verse, there's a sense of intimacy that transcends words. The lyrics 'Call me what you want, call me what you need' emphasize personal connection over verbal communication, hinting at the depth of non-verbal understanding between two people. The admission that 'words don't have to say' suggests that memories and meanings are often beyond articulation but are deeply felt within.

The chorus returns, now with added elements of urgency and persistence. 'Every minute, every hour' indicates a continuous effort to preserve memories, reinforcing the sentiment that some experiences are worth capturing in their entirety. The phrase 'you don't have to be silent, say to remind me' speaks to the power of sharing memories to keep them alive. It's a shared responsibility among loved ones or friends to recount and re-live moments to ensure they're not erased by time or distance.

Transitioning into the bridge, there's an echo of the song's beginning, creating a loop that symbolizes the cyclical nature of remembering and forgetting. As if in conversation with oneself or a dialogue with another, the repetition of 'Call me what you want, call me what you need' becomes a soothing reassurance that the essence of relationships can withstand the erosion of memory, that the core feelings and connections remain even when specific details might fade.

As the song progresses towards its end, the mood shifts slightly, culminating in the outro where there's a poignant realization of potential loss—'say you remember, for I think I've lost it.' It's a moment where the struggle to hold onto the past conflicts with the inevitability of forgetting. The song leaves us pondering over the transient nature of memory and the ways we attempt to anchor our lives through remembrance.
