Reminders of Then Lyrics

Ask me out
Take me over
Walk around
Meet my mother
Take me down
To the cellar
All around I see reminders of then

Why am I
Surprised
Lies and bullshit
And bullshit and lies

You'd think I'd give up after so many tries
My finger's on the trigger
And my eyes are on the prize

Summer songs
To September
Hope I last
Till November
Birthday boys
Don't Remember
All around I see reminders of then

Why am I surprised
Lies and bullshit
And bullshit and lies
You'd think I'd give up
After so many tries
But my finger's on the trigger
And my eyes are on the prize

Ask me out
Pull me over
Watch your back
Meet my brother
All those boyfriends
All those losers
In my pretend
Hera of Scorpio boys
My pretend Hera of Scorpio boys
My pretend Hera of Scorpio boys
My pretend Hera of Scorpio boys

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

Cover art for Reminders of Then lyrics by Moldy Peaches, The

This song didn't stand out much to me until now that I'm feeling really depressed. Got it off the Juno soundtrack. I initially thought it was a bittersweet trip of nostalgia. However, I could also see it as an unrequited love fantasy ("pretend," "my eyes are on the prize"). Hera means lady, but she was also a greek god who had jealous tendencies (again with the unrequited love). Nice song, not too cheery.
