"Yesterday Lies" lyrics

Can't believe what my eyes seem to see
All the thoughts trapped up in my memories
Something up in my head says I'm better where I used to be
I try to solve every mystery
But there's no luck stuck in the history
Ego tricking my mind into seeing what it wants to see

Yesterday lies (Yesterday lies)
When I leave it in my hands
Yesterday lies to me

Yea it's just an illusion caused by the thoughts trapped up in my memory
Voices telling me everything is better how it used to be

Yesterday lies (Yesterday lies)
I'm looking in front of me
Ain't going to let those old bad thoughts get the best of me
Yesterday lies to me

Hard to believe how the story unfolds
When your heart's so warm
And your love's so cold
I gotta say it was bold of us to begin at all
I used to feel so invincible
Found it easy to convince you all
Take a look at me now who are you after all

Yesterday lies
It's better than it used to be
Yesterday lies to me

Little by little they try to keep testing me
Little by little you try to get the best of me
You might have got me once but you won't get the rest of me
I'm looking in front of me

Yesterday lies
I'm looking in front of me
Yesterday lies to me
Yesterday lies it's better than it used to be
Ain't going to let my thoughts get away with thinking less of me
I ain't messing with destiny
I'm looking in front of me

Don't know why my memory
Keeps playing tricks on me
Yesterday lies you see
Yesterday lies to me
