Telling Myself Lyrics by DETER

Wither & Fade

2019

(Verse)

More  or less I can try my best to alleviate this stress that's giving me such unrest, As I lie here wide awake these bones begin to ache
Every  night's the same, hoping that it will change

(Chorus)

Would it be a lie if I said I didn't feel right?
It's  all within, the feeling from your own skin
When  you find a trace but you're never the same
This is just a phase I keep Telling Myself

(Verse) 

Four years is too long to wait for something that isn't the same
There's no telling when its too late, you won't give me the time of day
It's like you're afraid to stay, so these eyes will compensate
We're  past the point of it all, We're done with the late night talks

(Chorus)

Would it be a lie if I said I didn't feel right?
It's all within, the feeling from your own skin
When you find a trace but you're never the same
This is just a phase I keep Telling Myself

(Bridge)

I keep Telling Myself!
I keep Telling Myself!

Would it be a lie if I said I didn't feel right?
Would it be a lie if I said I didn't feel right?

(Chorus)

Would it be a lie if I said I didn't feel right?
It's all within, the feeling from your own skin
When you find a trace but you're never the same
This is just a phase I keep Telling Myself
