Willful Amnesia

Music by Ashelyn Summers
Lyrics by Ashelyn Summers and Marissa Grigonis

Vocals by Ashelyn Summers
Piano by Jennifer Takahashi
Cello by Daniel Lee
Bass by Dave Stone
Percussion by John Ferraro


Verse 1:

These words are so dear to me
Blended like a symphony
They are the last words that he said
Before I chose to forget

Verse 2:

These rules are so clear to me
Woven like a tapestry
They are the rules that bind my heart
Dividing end from start

Pre-chorus:

All my memories surround me
They take my life away
And everything I knew is different
In each and every way

Chorus:

An "I do" and adieu
And I'm wanting to forget
No I love you
When I leave you
With not a tear
Of one, single regret

Verse 3:

The past is now lost to me
Faded like an inchoate dream
Though my memories have all but gone
Deep inside love still lingers on

Pre-chorus:

All my memories surround me
They take my life away
Everything is different
In each and every way

Chorus:

An "I do" and adieu
And I'm wanting to forget
No I love you
When I leave you
With not a tear
Of one, single regret

Bridge:

I will always love you
I'll never leave you
You and I, together
For now and forever

I'll never love you
I'll will always leave you
You and I, never
Meant to be, ever

I love you
I loved you
Always and forever
I love you
I loved you
Together, you and I

Chorus:

An "I do" and adieu
And I'm wanting to forget
That I love you
When I leave you
With not a tear
Of one, single regret

Outro:

I don't regret it
I just have to forget
All we've known
It's just willful amnesia
And it's gone
And it's gone

  • this sounds like "Secret Door" that evanescence wrote. but this one came first. =3

  • @darcy4life13 Wow, thank you! I love that song as well. Evanescence is supremely talented, and I am always humbled when I am compared to them :)

  • Beautiful song. I'd love to put some distorted guitar into it. I think it would compliment nicely.

  • @david17071966 Thank you :) If you are serious, I would love to hear it!

    P.S. The stems are available for free download on my website. Just go to ashelynsummers . com and navigate to Music > Key To My Heart > Willful Amnesia > Remix

  • Did you use a fill at the Beginning?

  • @Theshemproductions The introduction is pure piano. The whole piece was recorded on a 1910 Story & Clark upright grand. It's a beautiful, worn, and unique instrument. A perfect match for the distress of the piece. You can even hear the subtle creak of the pedals if you listen closely enough.

  • I agree, this song is comparable to Evanescence <3

    You are so talented, hon! I find your music so soothing and comforting, and see no reason why you will not succeed with your dreams. Your talent is obvious to the eye.
