He's in the back of your mind
All of the time
Learn to forget
Lovely forget
When I sit alone,
Think of what you said
Better off just friends
Better off just dead.

And the hardest thing I do
Is wake up with out you
When everything falls apart
The emptiness leaves a mark
And the hardest thing I do
Is wake up with out you
When everything falls apart
The emptiness leaves a mark.

He's in the back your mind
All of the time
Learn to forget
Lovely forget
When I sit alone
I think of what you said
Better off Just friends
Better off just dead
And the hardest thing I do
Is wake up with out
When everything falls apart
The emptiness leaves a mark.

And the hardest thing I do
Is wake up with out
When everything falls apart
The emptiness leaves a mark

    "he's in the back of your mind all of the time. learn to forget. love . leave. forget." I'm trying so hard to get over somebody right now, and this expresses so much of what I feel.

    its weird. i heard this song in my friends car, and thought it was aweasome, and forgot about it and the band. then my (other) friend said "allison, you would like keepsake" so i got onto songmeanings and looked up keepsake and just picked a song that sounded good (this one) and i was like.. "where have i heard this amazing song before?!" and it really is a fun, fun song. (by fun i mean excellent and not literally fun) anyhoo, its a very expressive song that i dont think anyone has trouble relating to.

Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988. "'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it." "There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."

I Can't Go To Sleep
Wu-Tang Clan
This song is written as the perspective of the boys in the street, as a whole, and what path they are going to choose as they get older and grow into men. (This is why the music video takes place in an orphanage.) The seen, and unseen collective suffering is imbedded in the boys’ mind, consciously or subconsciously, and is haunting them. Which path will the boys choose? Issac Hayes is the voice of reason, maybe God, the angel on his shoulder, or the voice of his forefathers from beyond the grave who can see the big picture and are pleading with the boys not to continue the violence and pattern of killing their brothers, but to rise above. The most beautiful song and has so many levels. Racism towards African Americans in America would not exist if everyone sat down and listened to this song and understood the history behind the words. The power, fear, pleading in RZA and Ghostface voices are genuine and powerful. Issac Hayes’ strong voice makes the perfect strong father figure, who is possibly from beyond the grave.

Punchline
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran sings about missing his former partner and learning important life lessons in the process on “Punchline.” This track tells a story of battling to get rid of emotions for a former lover, whom he now realized might not have loved him the same way. He’s now caught between accepting that fact and learning life lessons from it and going back to beg her for another chance.

Amazing
Ed Sheeran
Ed Sheeran tells a story of unsuccessfully trying to feel “Amazing.” This track is about the being weighed down by emotional stress despite valiant attempts to find some positivity in the situation. This track was written by Ed Sheeran from the perspective of his friend. From the track, we see this person fall deeper into the negative thoughts and slide further down the path of mental torment with every lyric.
