About This Track
'Memory Serves' by Interpol is a 2010 alternative track from the album 'Interpol'. The lyrics address a persistent, almost tender effort to keep someone close and maintain their good mood, with a note of self-implication and unsteadiness in lines about lying and dust. The repeated idea of keeping someone occupied, only at a particular place, gives the song a controlled, private pressure, as if affection and obligation are being juggled at the same time. One moment it sounds like a promise, the next it hints at the emotional cost of performing it.
"Memory Serves" is a track by Interpol, from the album Interpol, released 7th September 2010. It's filed under Alternative. Full lyrics are available below. Dork has published 20 articles about Interpol.
