Ian Cherry - We Are Not the Truth We Were Staring Into Lyrics

We are not the truth we were staring into
It was life

I remember staring into
Each other's lives
Our eyes, sparkling with knowledge
That we were important to each other
In ways we know not yet how

I thought for sure that you were the one
And it was time

I didn't realize how quickly I'd get distant
What happened
Am I not ready
For love in my life
Or is it just
That I'm ready
For something else now
At least that's what I think
For peace of mind
And decide in your absence is true

And when what resounds back isn't love
At first you feel like a phone
Maybe get gloomy with negative thinking about yourself
For a week or two, or try a month
And you beg through music
For them to stop, and turn around
And you're feeling foul,
Desiring freedom

We are not the truth
We were
Staring into

The truth was life
The truth was life
