Lyrics: [Verse 1] Fading photographs inside my mind Changing colors of the years behind Rewriting pages till the story fits Shuffling all the broken pieces and bits [Chorus] Oh, the past is playing tricks again A beautiful lie from way back when Painting over every shade of gray Washing all the bitter truths away Who am I in the history I make? Every golden memory is fake [Verse 2] Polishing the edges of the pain Adding sunshine where there used to be rain A perfect theater of a life I stole Playing a carefully distorted role [Chorus] Oh, the past is playing tricks again A beautiful lie from way back when Painting over every shade of gray Washing all the bitter truths away Who am I in the history I make? Every golden memory is fake [Bridge] Did it really happen that way? Or did I just need something to say? Rewinding the tape, spinning the thread Living inside the fiction in my head [Chorus] Oh, the past is playing tricks again A beautiful lie from way back when Painting over every shade of gray Washing all the bitter truths away Who am I in the history I make? Every golden memory is fake [Chorus] Oh, the past is playing tricks again A beautiful lie from way back when Painting over every shade of gray Washing all the bitter truths away Who am I in the history I make? Every golden memory is fake [Outro] Just a fiction in my head Spinning the thread Beautiful lie Every memory is fake
