lyrics

Call me blind
Hell, call me dead
I bottle all the bad ideas in my head
I want to read you
What I’m really made of
If a word grows off of my nose
Don’t make me read it out loud

Fictional stories
Aren’t history books

And I won’t scream
For the highest bid
That’s why I experienced everything my parents did
They drove me around
Showed me what the city was made of
If I could be king, and you could be queen
We could fix up the failure with decent love

Fictional stories
Aren’t history books
A fictional story
A history book
You’re a fictional story
I’m a history book

Slapped in the face
By my ancestors
They called me ugly and they called me fat
Tied my shoes, ran out the door
And never looked back
I call your house feeling skeptical
Tell you life is better when you’re beautiful

Fictional stories
Aren’t history books
A fictional story
A history book
And you’re a fictional story
Cuz I’m a history book
