love the lie

sometimes the lyrics just find you...

This is what we've done to us
These memories we can't trust
But I try to love the lie
I find my own way home
Pretend our histories are not
Written in stone

You've got your saints and your sorrows
And I've got my ghosts
And what's killing me now
Is gonna kill us both
And if time is a factor
The only one that we face
Like lines on a map
You can try to erase
But it doesn't change a thing
No, it just makes a mess
And in a million years
I wouldn't love you any less
You can breathe in and out
You can burn to the ground
Put your finger on the trigger
When there's no one around
It's the truth you hate the most
And it would hurt if you could feel
But I'll visit at the grave
Yeah, I'll lay down on the field

This is what I've come to trust
These words have turned to dust
I can try to love the lie
I find my own way home
Pretend our histories are not
Written in stone
To love the lie I find my own way home
Pretend our histories are not
Written in stone
