These days keep rolling on and I still feel the same
All of these goodbyes
They are tethered to my soul
But words of love have lost their way
Inside this weary heart
And I wonder when I'll be whole
And if all we do just gets tangled, then untied
I'll pay my dues and at least I'll know I tried
I guess love is just a story
That's written in disguise
It was just the kind of story
I could never write
You were a beacon of laughter in the dark
Just when I believed
I could still believe
But words and spit
And hate and shit
Were all that you could ever give to me
And if I were you, I'd run away and hide
It was never true that you loved me and you tried
I guess love is just a story
That's written all in lies
It was just the kind of wrong I could never right
They say that you can't look for love
That one day, it just calls
And all these smoke and mirrors
They will just turn into fog and walls
And if all that's true, then someday I'll do right
And I'll know it's you when I open up my eyes
I guess love is just a story
That's written in the skies
It was just the kind of story I could never write
Oh, I could never write
Won't you help me get it right
I could never write
