Wishful Thinking Lyrics by Augustine

Wishful Thinking

2019

[Verse 1]
Only fractions of your voice resting in my mind
I’ve tried to recreate the sound, I can’t get it right

[Pre-Chorus]
And all those bitter stories about your sister and her lies
The fuck-ups and the failures, something got into your eyes
Your full weight on the pedal, I’m the deer and you’re the lights
You sold me everything I thought that I needed to buy
Like galleries of Andy, sell your fraud in good disguise
Your full weight on the pedal, I’m the deer and you’re the lights

[Chorus]
I was only wearing dreams, a wishful thinking
Now I’m naked in your scheme as I keep on drinking
I was only wearing dreams, a wishful thinking
Now I’m naked in your scheme as I keep on drinking

[Post-Chorus]
A wishful thinking
As I keep on drinking

[Verse 2]
In the mountain of your curls trying to get some sleep
But was there something in those words, are you mad at me?

[Pre-Chorus]
And all those bitter stories about your sister and her lies
The fuck-ups and the failures, something got into your eyes
Your full weight on the pedal, I’m the deer and you’re the lights

[Chorus]
I was only wearing dreams, a wishful thinking
Now I’m naked in your scheme as I keep on drinking
I was only wearing dreams, a wishful thinking
Now I’m naked in your scheme as I keep on drinking

[Chorus]
I was only wearing dreams, a wishful thinking
Now I’m naked in your scheme as I keep on drinking
I was only wearing dreams, a wishful thinking
Now I’m naked in your scheme as I keep on drinking
