Hell in white envelopes
0 ReviewsA failed long-distance relationship. By: Hayley
The lies we put on paper
is not what we hold in our hearts
but it keeps us safer
so we're not falling apart
Send me your greasy notes
and I'll send you some back
because the things we wrote
make up for what we lack
Like I held you
is now how I hold him
and since I know how you do
you and her are probably now a them
But it's all wrong
you just don't understand
how I wrote this song
to say I still wish you were really my man
Because it's not the same
as when we were us
but now it's just a game
and it's the lies I can not trust
is not what we hold in our hearts
but it keeps us safer
so we're not falling apart
Send me your greasy notes
and I'll send you some back
because the things we wrote
make up for what we lack
Like I held you
is now how I hold him
and since I know how you do
you and her are probably now a them
But it's all wrong
you just don't understand
how I wrote this song
to say I still wish you were really my man
Because it's not the same
as when we were us
but now it's just a game
and it's the lies I can not trust
