“This song is the story of a serial killer on trial trying to justify why he turned out to be a murderer. This is one of the few examples of me making an original instrumental as well as song. I can only do scary well for some reason lol”
—Author's comment
"If Memory Serves" is an original song, and the first written by producer Shigamuri Nana. It tells the story of a serial killer (DEX), who's on trial, trying to justify why he turned into a murderer for himself.

Pounding footsteps echo closer
Closing my eyes and ears and pretend to die
Screaming crying dimming lighting
Feeling and praying for him to spare her life
Sirens blaring, people staring
Daddy's holding up a knife
Guns are shot and daddy stops
Right where he stood
Is he alright?
Mommy's nowhere to be seen
Daddy's blood begins to gleam
All I thought was "scream scream scream!"
Now who's here to save me?
House to house they had be bouncing
Nobody wanted the kid with a broken life
War torn eyes before age nine
Was far more than anybody was willing to try
No one liked me I was "creepy"
All the kids paid me no mind
What am I still even doing here?
I shouldn't be alive...
Where's my mommy?
Why'd she leave me?
I can't bear to live this way
Dear daddy, why didn't I die with you two back on that day?
If memory serves me
That's why I am thirsty
Always searching for blood
But it's never enough
Pounding footsteps echo closer
Closing my eyes and ears and pretend to die
Screaming crying dimming lighting
Feeling and praying for him to spare her life
No one liked me I was "creepy"
Everyone thought I was sick
"That's the weird kid. Just avoid him."
"I heard he saw all of it"
And what followed, I couldn't say
It was like I had blacked out
When I came to, next thing I knew
I was cuffed and on the ground
If memory serves me
That's why I am thirsty
Always searching for blood
But it's never enough
If memory serves me
I'm not really guilty
Yes, my hands are filthy
But the killer wasn't me
If memory serves me
I was never really
Bad from the beginning
I am who they made me
If memory serves me
You cannot convict me
I plead insanity
Take me to your jury
