i tell myself lies

(albüm: Our Generation - 2021)

There was a time
When we were blinded by love and drove all night
Just to get out of town
To pretend we escaped

I could have died underneath all the stars
By fire light
With you there on the ground
Without a complaint

I've been hoping, I've been praying I'll wake up in the rain
Wearing your coat, that we're soaked in the tent that we made
I tell myself lies

Like every minute, every moment
Since you laid there with me
That I've been sleeping, that you leaving was a terrible dream
I tell myself lies

Someday maybe
I'll wake
Up there with you baby get a second chance to get it right
I tell myself lies
I tell myself lies

... I'll admit
I don't regret what I said
But what I di'n't
That's what hurts me the most if I'm being honest

I miss your lips
The way you spoke with a smile before we kissed
The little notes that wrote
That I keep in my pocket

I've been hoping, I've been praying I'll wake up in the rain
Wearing your coat, that we're soaked in the tent that we made
I tell myself lies

Like every minute, every moment
Since you laid there with me
That I've been sleeping, that you leaving was a terrible dream
I tell myself lies

Someday maybe
I'll wake
Up there with you baby get a second chance to get it right
I tell myself lies
I tell myself lies
