Keep Telling Yourself That

from From First to Second (compilation) by Ashley Scrace

/

lyrics

I've seen that look a thousand times,
You're looking to brighter skies,
You're hoping that I'll just disappear.

We found along the road,
We can't carry this heavy load,
That comes as we move away from here.

I couldn't see it coming,
Couldn't see the signs,
You were on the inside controlling my mind.
Lies became the truth,
Fear became the norm,
I'm not even sure what I'm fighting for.

CHORUS
Baby, I ain't got anything,
You can't find in someone else,
You're crazy, but of course you're perfect,
You just go on and keep telling yourself that.

Am I too tough on your mistakes?
Did I give you this heartache,
Instead of the loving that you crave?

Stop the bullshit, find the faith,
We once had for this place,
And realise that the days they run to the grave.

A scream of desperation,
A cry for help,
Is that what you call betraying me as well?
Lies became the truth,
Fear became the norm,
I'm not even sure what I'm fighting for.

CHORUS
