[Verse 1]
My friends are all filled with
Existential ennui
Smoke expensive cigarettes
And write bad poetry
I wish I could give life
Like Dr. Frankenstein
Set hearts to beating
That feel dead inside
[Chorus]
We are the stories we tell ourselves
We are the stories we tell ourselves
Heartbeat repeat
Heartbeat repeat
[Verse 2]
I wanna shoot for the moon
Or maybe the sun
Boil the ocean
Let my fuckups be undone
I wish I could fly
Like brave Icarus
They'd never believe
How close I could get
[Chorus]
We are the stories we tell ourselves
We are the stories we tell ourselves
Heartbeat repeat
Heartbeat repeat
[Chorus]
We are the stories we tell ourselves
We are the stories we tell ourselves
Heartbeat repeat
Heartbeat repeat
