Stories Lyrics by Refs

Stories

2018

[Verse 1]
You looked me in the face and told me that I'm selfish
Told me there is little I can do to repair this
I said I'm sorry and I hope some day that we can be friends
I could've said you make me feel like I am worthless
That you took all I had to give without returning
But I kept my mouth shut because I knew that this is the end

[Chorus]
You know that I forgive you
I know you don't forgive me
We're only humans, so we hold on to two completely different stories
You know that I will move on
And I know that you won't
Go 'head throw dirt on my name
I won’t be waiting for an apology
I’d rather let you speak

[Verse 2]
Remember when I said I thought we could make history
I cut off all my ties so you could have all of me
Thought if I let you have your way I’d fall into your good grace
Then you, policed my words until I felt like I couldn’t speak
Claimed you could read my mind and held my thoughts against me
You bullied anybody brave enough to contradict you

[Chorus]
You know that I forgive you
I know you don’t forgive me
We’re only human, so we hold on to two completely different stories
(Different stories)
You know that I will move on
And I know that you won’t
Go 'head throw dirt on my name
I won’t be waiting for an apology
I’d rather let you speak

[Bridge]
You think the more that you complain
The less you have yourself to blame
Isn't working out too well for you, is it?
(Isn't working out too well for you is it?)
You know that I will move on
And I know that you won’t
Go 'head throw dirt on my name
I won’t be waiting for no apology
I’d rather let you speak (I'd rather let you speak)
(You looked me in the face)
(Unnhhhhh)
(Policed my words until I felt like I couldn’t speak)
(And told me that I'm selfish)
(You looked me in the face and told me that I'm selfish)

[Outro]
Maybe you’ll realize that it’s not in your best interest
To throw your friends under a bus ‘til you got none left
But until then I promise you I won’t be holding my breath
