"Boats" lyrics

"Boats"

Have we been lying to ourselves again
To cover up the things that have been going on?
Is it because we're caught up in our wishful thinking
That it seems that nothing's wrong?
I know, I know
I know we know

We like to change our history
And justify, justify
We'll base it on a true story
But I know we know
I know we know

We'll tell the wind which way to sail these boats
We like to change our history
Oh, come on, come on, come on
Come on, let's right some wrongs
Come on, come on, come on

Hey

You're acting like a child who's got no worries
But behind it all you're a raging bull
But look at me 'cause I'm no better
Getting good at playing the role
Of being Mister Cold
I know, I know
I know we know

We like to change our history
And justify, justify
We'll base it on a true story
But I know we know
I know we know

We'll tell the wind which way to sail these boats
We like to change our history
Oh, come on, come on, come on
Come on, let's right some wrongs
Come on, come on, come on

Hey

Can change the names
To protect the innocent
The times and the dates
Of every incident
Can change the names
To protect the innocent
I know, I know
Oh I know we know

We like to change our history
And justify, justify
We'll base it on a true story
But I know we know
I know we know

We'll tell the wind which way to sail these boats
We like to change our history
Oh, come on, come on, come on
Come on, let's right some wrongs
Come on, come on, come on
Come on, let's right some wrongs (Come on)
Come on, come on, come on
Come on, let's right some wrongs (Come on)
Come on, come on, come on
