Lyrics
[Chorus]
I try to find heaven whenever it's hell
I tried to stay in love and do it without your help
And now I sing myself to sleep in hotels with
Lullabies wrapped in lies and stories I tell myself
Ooh, ooh
[Verse 1]
Young minds
Stretching out the summertime
Staring at the sun so long
Didn't mean to go blind
Little lies
Turning into big cries
We could take the whole ocean
And fill it up a hundred times
[PreChorus]
But the mind's a crazy thing
It believes what it wants to
Standing in the cold water
Like it isn't turning us blue
[Chorus]
I try to find heaven whenever it's hell
I tried to stay in love and do it without your help
And now I sing myself to sleep in hotels with
Lullabies wrapped in lies and stories I tell myself
Ooh, ooh
[Verse 2]
On the back-burn
I told myself it didn't hurt
There was always some reason
Why we didn't come first
And it still stings
I took the promise out the ring
You change with the season
And now I'm shivering in the spring
[PreChorus]
But the mind's a crazy thing
It believes what it wants to
Standing in the cold water
Like it isn't turning us blue
[Chorus]
I try to find heaven whenever it's hell
I tried to stay in love and do it without your help
And now I sing myself to sleep in hotels with
Lullabies wrapped in lies and stories I tell myself, self (Ooh, ooh)
[Outro]
Stories I tell myself, self (Ooh, ooh)
Stories I tell my-myself, self (Ooh, ooh)
Stories I tell myself, self (Ooh, ooh)
Stories I tell
