[Verse 1]
You look like sugar but you taste like salt
Your touch is like fire but I still feel cold
I've been messing with my memory to remember what I want
Must've been miscalculating, all you did was play along
[Chorus]
I rewrite the story so that I can drown in all the glory
Where we make believe that we are something that we're not
Through the smoke and mirrors, I wanted to see a different picture
But I know the truth, but still it fools me everytime
I go back and rewrite
[Verse 2]
Painted it gold but it's black and white (Black and white, black and white)
It wasn't a diamond but I made it shine
Dropped the needle and it's spinning, sounding like a love song
All that I can do is listen, echoes even when he's gone
[Chorus]
I rewrite the story so that I can drown in all the glory
Where we make believe that we are something that we're not
Through the smoke and mirrors, I wanted to see a different picture
'Cause I know the truth, but still it fools me everytime
I go back and rewrite
Oh, no
[Bridge]
Maybe we both lied and this don't come from just one side
But I can't face the bottom line that you don't want me
Just don't want me
[Chorus]
I rewrite the story so that I can drown in all the glory
Where we make believe that we are something that we're not
I rewrite the story so that I can drown in all the glory
Where we make believe that we are something that we're not
Through the smoke and mirrors, I wanted to see a different picture
But I know the truth, and still it fools me everytime
I go back and rewrite
[Outro]
(I go back, I go back, I go back and re-)
(I go back, I go back, I go back and re-)
I go back, go back (I go back, I go back, I go back and re-)
I go back, go back (I go back, I go back, I go back and re-)
And rewrite
