The little thoughts [bad word] in 
While I watched for a sign from him 
When all the while was clear as day 
That I should go and he should stay 
I look his love like it was mine 
I squeezed the [bad word] until it lied 
It took some time for cracks to show 
Should I stay or should he go? 
The simple story that you told me 
Is a little different from what you showed me 
The simple story, unfurling slowly 
Is if you lay down with a dream 
You'll wake up lonely 
The fog will cast a certain shade 
So what you see is how what's made 
it's mark will show you what to do 
When hope pretends it's made you new 
Love lied love lied but I'm the reason 
Love lied 
The simple story that you told me 
Is a little different from what you showed me 
The simple story, unfurling slowly 
Is if you lay down with a dream 
You'll wake up lonely 
The sky wraps round the mountaintops 
The watch unwinds until it stops 
Some things will always be the way they are 
And that is how they'll stay 
The simple story that you told me 
Is a little different from what you showed me 
The simple story, unfurling slowly 
Is if you lay down with a dream 
You'll wake up lonely
