History / Fiction

I told you all that i wanted to say

And you believed all you wanted to hear.

Our little fictions helped to break up the day

They keep us warm and they keep back the fear.

And to know, could have thrown us out of sync

Like breathing when you try too hard

And to know, could have shaken us away

Made us see it as a waste of time

Waste of time

Waste of time

We're not our personal history book

Start again when we get to the end

And it's a fiction like all history

It's been distorted until it makes sense

And to know, could have blown us out of sync

Like breathing when you try too hard

And to know, could have shaken us away

Made us see it as a waste of time

But to know, could have thrown us out of sync

But it never was a waste of time

Waste of time
