I won’t know that it’s you
Holding hands with her in the park
I won’t miss all the things
That we used to do in the dark
When you said that your heart
Belonged to only me
It won’t matter at all
Cause my own has been wiped clean

I erased your taste from my lips
Now I have no memory
All our kisses never existed
I have no memory
All the nights we shared
Staring into each other's eyes
were all lies
Did you say it was over forever?
I can’t remember

Time keeps speeding up
And we all let go of the dream
Was it you, was it me
Tearing us apart at the seams?
Do you think of the way
That it was before our bitter end?
I can’t think or recall at all
So I have no regret

I erased your taste from my lips
Now I have no memory
All our kisses never existed
I have no memory
All the nights we shared
Staring into each other's eyes
were all lies
Did you say it was over forever?
I can’t remember

I erased your taste from my lips
Now I have no memory
All our kisses never existed
I have no memory
All the nights we shared
Staring into each other's eyes
were all lies
Did you say it was over forever?
I can’t remember

I erased your taste from my lips
Now I have no memory
All our kisses never existed
I have no memory
All the nights we shared
Staring into each other's eyes
were all lies
Did you say it was over forever?
I can’t remember

Merisan + synths is a perfect recipe for me. This is super catchy, super chiptuney, and definitely my favourite of the songs in competition. There a couple of melodic bits that give me ABBA vibes ("I can't remember" especially). My only critique is that I don't really understand why the guitar comes in for the solo / breakdown bit - it feels really out of place to me.

BBS must be selling a lot of those devices… This started a bit slow for me, but I was enjoying the lyrics. When the chorus came around you got me. Head bobbin’, singin’ along...I was sold. Great hook. All the challenge requirements were checked, and the only negative I can come up with here is that it’s a bit too repetitive coming in around 4 minutes. Only 2 verses, and even though the chorus is catchy, you nearly ran it out of gas. Excellent work.
