New Romantics Lyrics by Hands Like Houses

Dissonants

2015

[Verse 1]
A hopeless romantic
Self-medicated on reality
A misunderstanding
Is all that anyone can see in me
[Pre-Chorus]
Pulling up the floor to go deeper down
Tearing at the soil to find the ground
[Chorus]
I'm trying to find myself, coming back to the same words
To try to tell a different story
I'm farther from myself, coming back to the same words
In hope they come alive without me
(Without me)
[Verse 2]
A moment's reflection
Has given me a second chance to heal
A loss of connection
In matching up my words to how I feel
[Pre-Chorus]
Pulling up the floor to go deeper down
Tearing at the soil to find the ground
[Chorus]
I'm trying to find myself, coming back to the same words
To try to tell a different story
I'm farther from myself, coming back to the same words
In hope they come alive without me
[Bridge]
I've taken on too much
Empty pages on the floor
Tearing volumes from the shelf
To find what I've been looking for
Then it hit me
Well, I haven't changed
I'm still the same man I was before
Well, I haven't changed
I'm still the same man I was
[Chorus]
Just trying to find myself, coming back to the same words
To try to tell a different story
I'm farther from myself, coming back to the same words
In hope they come alive without me
I'm farther from myself coming back to the same words
I'm trying to find myself coming back to the same words
