EDEN - Amnesia [Lyrics]

- Jonathon Ng (EDEN/The Eden Project) sings 'Amnesia' live - presumably at his school/college during his last year. There is no studio version of this song, and Jon stated that there never will be. As a note, I used all lowercase letters in this lyric video on purpose, as this is the style that EDEN usually conforms to.
Please note, that at around 2:03 in the video, I did not place any lyrics on-screen due to having no clue as to what Jon said at this point (words I feel I can make out are: "know/no like she's inside/insight", but this would make absolutely no sense, so I didn't add anything). There are also no (known) official lyrics available anywhere to copy from, so all of this is done purely by what I heard. A lot of you are leaving comments about the missing lyrics from 2:03 being "my mind turned inside out", though if you listen carefully it doesn't quite sound like these are the actual lyrics. However, if you think you know what the lyrics are for 2:03 then please leave a comment. I hope you enjoy.

Lyrics:
and just one moment
is all i ask for
just one star between us
and just one second now
some perfect clarity
and i swore
to god
that i wouldn't cry
and i swore
i can't see how it's anything more than a lie
and all the years
i won't ever let them go
all my fears
they break me down, down so low
and i'll be missing you
for a lifetime
but eighteen years
are better than none
until the time comes for me
to turn to dust
so i'll get on fine
[inaudible]
i've always found it easy
to hide these thoughts of mine
a collapsing state of mind
i'll sink to where thoughts can't find me
and i swore
to god
that i wouldn't cry
i swore
i can't see how it's anything more than a lie
and all the years
i won't ever let them go
all my fears
they'll break me down, down so low
and i'll be missing you
for a lifetime
but eighteen years are better than none
until the time comes for me
to turn, to turn
and we all hurt
and time heals nothing at all
decisions made
they cut me off from all i've ever known
and i can't think
no, i can't breathe
i can't be what i want to with this weight on me
wish i had selective amnesia
to keep you away from me
oh, i'll be missing you
for a lifetime
but eighteen years are better than none
until the time
comes for me
to turn to dust.

at 2:03 he says "My mind turned inside out"
At 2:03 it sounds like 'I know what is inside'
"I know what's inside out"
It may be?
The tab says" it's like she's inside out"
Know Your Lyrics the whole lyric at 2:03 is "so I'll get on fine//the mountain inside" check the atlas grey cover of the song that's how the lyrics are

Me too brother this song holds a solid part in my heart forever
I just herd this and I have been listening to eden since 2016, this is so powerful.
Gosh, his voice is incredible, he's so talented AND handsome.
Gappy yes
god bless whoever recorded this
may he live long
My friend main yas and Eden fan
I wish he released this with vertigo
I doubt he's ever gonna officially release it :/
Ben Sommer yeah he said it himself :(
He makes every song sound unique. I feel like he‘s one of the best musicians in human history.
OK BOOMER
But he is real good man :)
No look biggie smalls
agreed
He is
Petition to get Eden to release the studio version
Anu sign me the fuck up
No. I like the raw emotions with echo and all. It feels authentic. Also eden himself said he will never do a studio of this.
@@nope9885 why...??
@@sourabhsinha9026 i dont know why he won't release it. I just know he won't.
@@sourabhsinha9026 It is for his class. Not the world to hear. he wanted to keep this song for who it was meant for
I played that song to my friend...she said it was terrible...whereas i find it beautiful...deppresing, a little bit uplifting...it reminds me of loosing my fiance almost one year ago "all these years...i won't ever let them go, And i'll be missing u... for a lifetime" my Love..this song has...that special something, hits you like a wrecking ball, leaving you in disaster, but you're listening to it, why? Cause that's how true love feels. Thank you Jonathan.
Wait what? Okay, I understand people have different opinions, but terrible? How can this be terrible?
@@ivailoivanov5137 freaking 👏 PREEACHH 👏 GURL👏
this person should not be a friend lmaooo
Philipp Kohl this is what people would refer to as a joke, catch on bud
I think she meant your playing was terrible
Love the way he's so shy at the beginning and then he's just took by music and emotions.. so meaningful song and btw emotional and hurting..
It’s a shame that he’ll never make a studio version of this, but I kinda understand why, the song sounds like it was for someone that meant a lot to him. Whatever, I’ll stand by Eden’s choice. We can still hope
3:38 "Wish I had selective amnesia to keep you away from me"
That hits me hard. Reminds me of my first love (which was in high school). This is special. Protect it at all costs.
Replying three years later I made a comment on this post and I just graduated high school and it makes me feel the same way
Thought it was just me, its kinda bittersweet to know that there is someone out there who share the same sentiment.
Someone: ''Nothing is perfect''
EDEN: ''Hold my beer''
asdf asdf you created a meme
I have to smile about it 😍❤️💯
"Hold my Vertigo"
i come back to this song every few months. jon is one of those rare artists where i can genuinely say i've enjoyed everything he has created.
Seven years and I always keep coming back. "I swore to God, that I wouldn't cry."
same
Me too
Why is he so handsome. Like legit, makes me more insecure about myself every time i see this beautiful man singing. Goddamit
I feel like the reason that this song and times like these hit me so hard is because they are all about an end of an era, and having just finished school - and probably not going to see half of the people again - gives me the exact same feelings these songs are about, and it just makes both of them that much more special.
Shame there will be not studio version, but this proves his talent by singing something good enough to be a studio song in front of his peers
how do u feel now?
is it weird that I come back to this video almost daily
ImDudePRO same haha
Youre not alone my friend hahahah
His eyes were shining at the end. I think there were tears...
Just one moment
Is all I ask for
Just one talk between us
And just one second now
Some perfect clarity
And I swore
To God
That I wouldn't cry
And I swore
I can't see how it's anything more than a lie
And all the years
I won't ever let them go
All my fears
They bring me down, down so low
And I'll be missing you
For a lifetime
But eighteen years are better than none
Until the time comes for me
To turn to dust
So I'll get on fine
My mind turned inside out
I've always found it easy
To hide these thoughts of mine
A collapsing state of mind
I'll sink to where thoughts can't find me
And I swore
To God
That I wouldn't cry
I swore
I can't see how it's anything more than a lie
And all the years
I won't ever let them go
All my fears
They break me down, down so low
And I'll be missing you
For a lifetime
But eighteen years are better than none
Until the time comes for me
To turn, to turn
And we all hurt
And time heals nothing at all
Decisions made
They cut me off
From all I've ever known
And I can't think
No, I can't breathe
I can't be what I want to with this weight on me
I wish I had
Selective amnesia
To keep you away from me
But I'll be missing you
For a lifetime
But eighteen years are better than none
Until the time comes for me
To turn to dust
i think this song is about graduating and forgetting the things that happened in school to pursue their dreams and focus in it
I agree! I had that idea in my head while creating this video. It's what helped me put the lyrics together, to ensure it all made sense with what EDEN was singing.
how do you get the idea that this song was about school?
Pinguin lala 18 years to turn to dust, 18 years of school. this is a performance at school before graduation. he says I swore to god I wouldn't cry, I believe he is talking about he won't cry when graduating. But songs are here for you to interpret them in anyway you like, so if you think its something you can relate to interpret in that way too, this is just my take on it though.
I think that's one of the reasons he didn't want to make a studio version of it because it was only for school
Seagh Well said. :)
Mom passed away last year this song hits different. The way I perceive this masterpiece is different. “Just one moment now is all i ask for” all i need is one moment to tell you everything I wanted to tell you when you were still here. “And all the years I won't ever let them go” all of those years my mom took care of me I wouldn't forget all of it the love and support you gave me helped me to become who I am today. The things you did for me I won't forget “until the time comes for me to turn to dust” and I know “time heals nothing at all” no matter how long i live my life I'll always have this void in my heart that no one could ever fill. You are the greatest blessing that god could ever give and I regret taking all of it for granted. Mom “i’ll be missing you, for a lifetime” I can't wait for the day I'd see you again in heaven. For now, I'd live through this hell each day I know, at the end of this suffering I'll find my way back to you.
I love how you put "EDEN" in bold at the end of your video! nice little touch dude!
Haha, thanks! It just felt right.
Aaron Willams sameee
you can hear his pain

I wanna know what kind of person Jon was in high school
Me too
Probably that shy guy all the other guys hated and and all the girls sort of glanced at. And then BAM!👏 puberty hit him HARD and before u knew it 5 years later he's 6'3 and makin' music and all those guys from high school getting jealous because now even loosers like me have fallen in l😍ve with this guy
He's 21 in this video wow
Yes he's 23 rn in 2018
His birthdays some time in December
I went to his school, Blackrock College. He was normal haha no one hated him. Also its an all boys school so..
@@30RJA oh lmao I said probably XD this dumhass American chic😂
Calm down there tough guy. It was a statement; It's obviously a guy and not a "chic" as he stated it is all boys school meaning no girls.
Eden: I swore to God I wouldn't cry
Me: *floods the streets with tears*
You know what, he problably messed up a little bit in the start of the song but, the rest of the song makes up for what he messed up...
Perfect🤧
I feel like this song is towards a loved one that's passed on and has died who meant a lot to Jonathan. For example, "and just one moment, is all i ask for" - Asking to see them once more so he can share his feelings. Not letting go of "all the years" as well; holding onto the memories that "break me down". As well, he references himself dying quite a lot in this one and it's dependent on when "the time comes for me / to turn to dust". I feel like a truly loved one has died and he's singing to them.
A beautiful interpretation! :)
I think the song refers to leaving school and most of his friends he found in it.
Which would explain why he doesn't want to release a studio version, because the song itself has sentimental value to him.
Shahmeer Bakht Usually EDEN does release music that has 'sentimental value to him', a clear example of this is his latest album, Vertigo, so I doubt the original comment isn't the correct interpretation. I think xLucky Prr's interpretation is a lot more accurate, but that's just my opinion. (:
HDIrishRyan I believe he's singing about school and leaving them all behind ""Just one moment is all I ask for, he's referring to his classmates he's spent 18 years with knowing that he'll never get to see them again
his powerful lyrics and soothing voice are the reasons why I live
Eden has been my top artist on Spotify for the past three years and I just found this song.... I’ve already repeated it 20 times and I’m still mind blown it’s so good.
I've been a big fan of Eden just found this beautiful song. " I'll be missing you for a lifetime" part hits different since my older brother just passed this Sunday. Such a beautiful song😭🥺
I literally grew up with this and I can't explain how much this masterpiece means to me. Thank you Jon you helped me more than you could imagine .
eden sang way better than a lot of people who realease songs on record 2017 while he sang live
Zain Niddu true asf
Agreeeeed
fact
I’ve been listening to this song for 6 years. I fall in love with it again every time.
I still return to this very often
if this was in vertigo i think eden would have become a religion. but then again he already is
For the inaudible portion i hear
'So I'll get on fine,
hold my tears inside~
I've always found it easy, '
Late but that sounds right to me!
Pin pin pin
the guitar riff right in the beginning gets me everytime
When I listen to the song in my head or when I hum it I add that part cuz it's like part of the song to me
i always come back here
yup
this just made me cry
ghita futurebound but you swore to god that you wouldn't cry 😂😂
Hopeful Breh +1
it's been 4 years and i still come back to this from time to time
update: this vid still rocks me to my core
I swore to god i wouldnt cry😔
Hikmah Adun shut up bitch
Hopeful Breh dude, chill
Hikmah Adun u ok bud? like it’s been 8 months but still
Hey its been 3 years and i want u to know if u ure okah
Hidden gem lives on forever
I really wanted to see the applauses ^^
It doesn't sound like there are many others in the room to me, which is strange but...
its his school
It sounds like there are hundreds in the room...
Snowing Project Its his graduation
@@marcosmoran18 its not, if you see when that was released on the channel of his school was around by april or may
Probably a girl in high school had a huge crush on him but was too shy to approach him and found herself crying as he sang this. Maybe she still watches this video from time to time, wondering what it could have been.
You don't know that
Paola Femat pretty sure he went to an all boys school lmao
are you that girl?
@@jam9482 she said: "probably", it wasn't an affirmation
I just instantly start crying when listening to this
He ain't speakin for just himself, he is speaking for everyone of us who relates.
The feels
It's just so cool that you have this. I keep coming back just to listen to the purity, and warmth of his voice.
Another night where I listen to this song on repeat. I don’t relate to the song (in terms of losing someone that was close to me and wishing I had amnesia to stop remembering them) but I love me some true emotional singing.
Eden is by far my favourite artist of all time.
god he’s perfect
Pure nostalgia and emotion, this song is so valuable ly
Lost my best friend in 2016. I still remember every second we laugjed together. She was so sweet and always used to motivate me. I had the best memories of my life with her. I was crying since 2016 I'm a little bit tired of everything. This song reminds me of her.
I‘m sorry, I hope things get better for you! There’s better times ahead:)
I lost mine 6 months ago. She didn't die, she just cut me off of her life. 6 months, and I'm still as miserable as ever. "Selective amnesia to keep you away from me" hits home. Too bad nothing I do can really suppress my memories of her :( all our good memories have become painful to think about now.
@@squishytim7303I’m here again thank you ❤
'i swore to god i wouldnt cry'
I've been in love with EDEN's voice since I first heard one of his songs around 4-5 years ago.
I certainly didn't expect him to look like this.
Anyone else surprised?
Just me then?
Okay...
I think he might've said "No light stays inside / I've always found it easy", but, that's just what I hear
Hmm, interesting... Thank you for your input!
This song is so powerful. It gives me chills and makes me just want to break down and cry.
2:00 is where everyone there new they were witnessing the beginning of a mans career
Man Ive been waiting for this to be released... I guess it never will
Just realized man made a beautiful song about school
i'm sad that he won't make a studio version (he said the song is too personal), but at the same time, i actually like this version better than having a studio one
can you pls link me the article/interview where he said that?
i never understood edens pain until now its like no matter what i try to do to forget here weather its drugs woman or my career i can never forget her she shaped me into my best version of myself just to leave me the hurttest ive ever felt and even now i wonder if anything could of every changed and that just makes me sink deeper into the hole ive maybe single handedly created
This is pure skills of his VOICE and musical MIND
One of my top 5 favs from Jon! He was amazing from the beginning! I vibe to this almost everyday! 🎧🎶🎼
"But eighteen years are better than none."
this is GOLD (desert air won't drown you out) ! still discovering Jon incredible skills after many years following him !!!
An absolute masterpiece..
I have no words, this guy is so underrated
I would kill for a studio version of this, ive listened to it a thousand times. I love eden
Eden is a God ❤️
JustGimmeVayne facts
I was just trying to find some new songs and end up hearing most of Edens songs, brings me tears...
Brother man. The way Eden writes he always hides emotions with big words for example 'amnesia' this song was about moving on from school. He was probably not the coolest kid in high school yah know? So he said that he'd probably turn to dust to others. But one portion of the song has to be about a woman. He says about how time heals nothing, and how he wants amnesia. I think Jon's heartbroken. Tbh
Interesting interpretation, but I like it! You might be on to something!
i still come back and listen to this
Who else is listening to this after he just released his very first debut album and played one of the best world tour's?
Michelangelo Mendieta me
I just wish the video continues and you could hear the crowd roar or just applaud. I wanna know how he made his classmates feel with that
4 years later, still heart aching in so many ways
Heartthrobs don't die down, do they
This song just collides into my heart like waves against a rocky shore.
when he was about to cry when he says selective amnesia
THIS MUSIC IS SO PERFECT, I LOVE YOU EDEN
damn i really wish there was a studio version of this song, its really good TvT but i guess we gotta respect his decision of not making the studio version, he probably had personal reasons to not do so, or maybe he just didnt feel like it, whatever was the case, this song is amazing
-Papá, por qué mi hermana se llama rosa?
-Porque a tu mamá le gustan las rosas.
-Gracias papá.
-De nada EDEN - Amnesia [Lyrics]
casi paso por alto que habian mas hispanohablantes por aquí jajaja
I think I finally figured it out. I think the missing line is "though life seems inside out"
Hopefully i can do this for my school soon. thanks for inspiring me jon, thanks for everything
Simply.... great admiration for this artist!
I can't stop replaying ♡
I think it's sweet that he wanted this song for his class :3
Damn the emotions in his voice...
Absolutely in love with this beautiful video! Thanks for sharing 💙
Absolutely my pleasure! Thanks for watching!
I can’t stop listening to it
This is amazing 💯
God I wish he would make a studio version of this because it's incredible
The perfect song
You can FEEL his emotions in his voice when he sings. That's the best kind of artist
I love the little "EDEN" name drop at the end there. It's like a signal saying, "This is the beginning of an era." Even though the song, of course, is about the end of one.
This song reminds me so much of my uncle, Rest In Peace Jimbo
[Verse 1]
And just one moment
Is all I ask for
Just one talk between us
And just one second now
Some perfect clarity
And eighty hours alone
[Pre-Chorus]
And I swore to god that I wouldn't cry
And I swore to you I can't see
How it's anything more than a lie
[Chorus]
And all these years
I won't ever let them go
All my fears
They'll bring me down, down so low
And I'll be missing you
For a lifetime
But eighteen years are better than none
Until the time comes for me
To turn to dust
[Verse 2]
So I'll get on fine
My mind turned inside out
I've always found it easy
To hide these thoughts of mine
A collapsing state of mind
I'll sink to where thoughts can't find me
[Pre-Chorus]
And I swore to god that I wouldn't cry
And I swore to you I can't see
How it's anything more than a lie
[Chorus]
And all these years
I won't ever let them go
All my fears
They'll bring me down, down so low
And I'll be missing you
For a lifetime
But eighteen years are better than none
Until the time comes for me
To turn, to turn
[Verse 3]
And we all hurt
And time heals nothing at all
Decisions made and they cut me off
From all I've ever known
And I can't think
No, I can't breathe
I can't be what I want to with this weight on me
[Bridge]
I wish I had
Selective amnesia
To keep you away from me
[Chorus]
But I'll be missing you
For a lifetime
But eighteen years are better than none
Until the time comes for me
To turn to dust
gonna love this guy forever :D
Such a beautiful human bean
It’s “human being”
i would never consider myself liking this kind of music... buT DAAMN his style is so good that I can't help it c':
