The Revisionist v. 2


Kissed your lips on that summer night
Then wiped the tears back from your eyes
Instead of leaving, you stayed behind
You stayed behind with me

With heavy hearts, some faith renewed
To leave behind what you'd been through
Blaming fallacy for wasted youth
You found yourself at ease
You found yourself at ease

Hand in hand we walked across
In memory of the time we lost
Accosting what had come before
We couldn't ask for any more

Years rolled by with some waves of strength
No feelings kept or words restrained
Sung out of tune for what remained
You stayed happily with me

Now ghosts don't haunt you fast asleep
And demons won't possess these dreams
But nothing here is what it seems
It's what it couldn't be
It's what it couldn't be

Hand in hand we walked across
In memory of the time we lost
Accosting what had come before
We couldn't ask for any more
We couldn't ask for any more

Revise the past, our history
Until the thought appeases me
What's in my head, you'll never see
I'm the revisionist, I'm the revisionist
