The Revisionist (alternate approach)


Hand in hand we walked
But in the end it's only talk
Each time they stopped to gawk, we passed them by

Lost in lust, we smiled
All created in denial
Every reason to revile, they passed us by
Struggling with the answers, still I try

When there comes to be a doubt that you're only in my dreams
And when nothing's what it seems, I'm the revisionist

For every single fear that brings you far away from here
Don't bother crying all those tears, I'm the revisionist
I am the revisionist, I'm not a thing

Never held you in my arms
Or kept you safe from any harm
Now there's nothing to disarm, it passed us by

Although it never made much sense
The story spirals in my head
And when I need to get some rest, it won't pass by
Struggling with the answers, still I try

When there comes to be a doubt that you're only in my dreams
And when nothing's what it seems, I'm the revisionist

For every single fear that brings you far away from here
Don't bother wasting all those tears, I'm the revisionist
I am the revisionist, I'm not a thing

Hand in hand we walked
But in the end it's only talk
Each time they stopped to gawk, you passed me by
