Memory Palace (feat. Ezra Koenig)

Steam coming from a manhole and tall blue stack
Like an apparition it blurs, the full frontal attack
The gold in your band came from an ancient blast
Need a fortress for protection against a long slow-fading past

I'm building my memory palace
Item placement and long thought chains
Prime numbers, I'm running in sequence
Behind the eyes, mnemonic aids
My memory palace

Blank stare but I swear, I'm all there, someone home
Is that what I look like? Haha, well, I guess that's so
I laugh but I worry 'bout, worry about, can I make it through?
Make my time of solitude work so that my recall is true

I'm building my memory palace
Item placement and long thought chains
Fibonacci numbers in sequence
Behind the eyes, mnemonic aids
My memory palace

I'm trying to remember it all
Waking dreams, clean and shaped
Sequences, my fortress against slow fade
Memory palace
