Ethan Pauley - Confessions Lyrics

I tried that way before
And all I ever got was a swift kick out of your heart and into the cold
I've never understood
What makes it feel so good about blindly buying into the shit that we're sold
I say it's all lies
And I know it as the streetlights dance the night away under the polluted sky
I say it's all right
And I join the rest of the crew in telling their useless, ruthless and truthless little lies

But I'd never lie to you
That is, unless you want me to
Then I'll never say a word you could believe

And soon I guess I'll be singing
The harmony you'd be bringing
To prove that we knew what dreams were about
And I can't help but think it's such a waste of time
But I'd rather stand for something than
Just wish on what could never be

Don't tell me I have changed
Because this whole damn world has rearranged right before my very eyes
And I'm so afraid
That as the moments take your breath away, someday it will be lost and gone for good
And I know it's strange
But the promises we've broken are what keep me looking up when I fall down
Do you miss the days
When everything was what it claimed to be and every step was safe and sound

When I look into your eyes
I've never felt so wanted and
I've never felt such paralyzing fear

And soon I guess I'll be singing
The harmony you've been bringing
Giving up on our dreams is what we're about
And I can't help but think it's such a waste of time
But I'd rather stand for something than
Just wish on what could never be

Do you miss the days
When everything was what it claimed to be and every step was safe and sound

I'll spend my whole life just singing
The harmony we'd be bringing
'Cause I know that my dreams are all strung out
And I only hope it's not a waste of time
Because I'd rather stand for something
Than just wish on what could never be
