stories at the Live Dream Songtext
von MisterWives

The story never changed no matter how much I tried to
I shrank for you, knees black and blue
From begging and praying to keep us one not two
But the biggest casualty was losing me once I lost you
A story I′m not proud to tell
But one I will pass down to my inner child
In hopes that they do not dim their light
That they don't lose their wild

I try to find heaven whenever it′s hell
I try to stay in love and do it without your help
And now I sing myself to sleep in hotels with
Lullabies wrapped in lies and stories I tell myself
(Ooh, ooh)


Young minds
Stretching out the summertime
Staring at the sun so long
Didn't mean to go blind
Little lies
Turning into big cries
We could take the whole ocean
And fill it up a hundred times

But the mind's a crazy thing
It believes what it wants to
Standing in the cold water
Like it isn′t turning us blue

I try to find heaven whenever it′s hell
I try to stay in love and do it without your help
And now I sing myself to sleep in hotels with
Lullabies wrapped in lies and stories I tell myself
(Ooh, ooh)

On the back burn
I told myself it didn't hurt
There was always some reason
Why we didn′t come first
And it still stings
You took the promise of the ring
You changed with the seasons
And now I'm shivering in the spring


But the mind′s a crazy thing
It believes what it wants to
Standing in the cold water
Like it isn't turning us blue

I try to find heaven whenever it′s hell
I try to stay in love and do it without your help
And now I sing myself to sleep in hotels with
Lullabies wrapped in lies and stories I tell myself, self

Stories I tell myself, self
Stories I tell myself, self
Stories I tell myself, self
Stories I tell myself
Self
Ooh, ooh, ooh
Stories I tell
