"Memories Lie" lyrics

You gotta live a little, you gotta give a little; we've got a long, cold history
If I seem uncomfortable, it's because you're just too close to me
Past the living room, a rose-tinted tomb, and a ghost staring back at me
If it seems impossible, it's because you don't believe

Memories (memories, memories) lie
Memories, (memories) memories (memories) lie

In a little while, I'll be out of style, out of grace and reality
When I feel disposable, I'll pretend it meant something to me
Everyone you see, passing on the street, plays a part in a tragedy
When it's too uncomfortable, it can rewrite history

Memories (memories, memories) lie
Memories (memories, memories) lie
Memories (memories, memories) lie
Memories, (memories) memories (memories) lie

Try to see it from another angle
Memories can change with passing time
You believe it when it's all too painful
Now you need it just to feel alright

Try to see it from another angle
Try to see it in another light
Memories can lie when they're too painful
Now you need it just to feel alright
Just to feel alright
Just to feel alright
