Tall Tales

I know you love your stories, your drama, your conflict, your thrill
And you have that rare gift of making tall tales feel real
I loved you in all your glory, your flaws and your faults too
And I still think about us all the time if it means anything to you

You can say you love me
And you can hold me like you do
You can say the sky is falling
And I'd believe you
Yeah, mm
And I believed you, mm

You know I still search for answers in the archives of my mind
Replaying moments and feeling sick of traveling through time, time
It's a chapter I know I should close, but I need to hold on
Resenting that my remedy is turning tears into sad love songs

And you can say you love me
You can hold me like you do
You said you want this forever
And I believed you
I, I believed you, oh
When I really had no good reason to, oh

The last time I saw you, I shed a tear behind your back
'Cause I felt this hopelessness yearning for someone you fabricated
You didn't notice at all, you were too high and consumed
And maybe I'm a fool, but somehow
In your fairytale life, I believed in you, mm
I believed you, mm
