Myth Lyrics - Keane

You built it up brick by brick 

Put your heart into this baseless myth 

Nurtured it like a child 

And dressed its wounds when it ran wild 

You stopped to fix your face 

Someone else stepped in and took your place 

Now everything you once knew 

Is running circles around you 

A car door slamming in your road 

It jolts you like a kick inside 

A year old message on your phone 

That catches you when you can't hide 

I see you in the service station sign 

I see you in the supermarket line 

I see you silhouetted on a wall 

But I don't see myself there at all

NEW SONG: Blink-182 - 'Happy Days' Lyrics 

This vessel of Balsa wood 

Is the fag end tail of amoeba-hood 

The busying cast confer 

And get their taste of the drama 

You stare through mindless daytime shows 

And curse yourself for growing old 

The sterile scent of shaving foam 

Reminds you of another world 

I see you in the roofless sombre sky 

I see you when the lovers stop outside 

I see you silhouetted on a wall 

But I don't see myself there at all 

I see you in the sweetness of our child 

I see you in the supermarket aisle 

I see you when I'm kneeling on the floor 

But I can't see myself anymore 

Photos 

Hard times got the upper hand 

Stole our feeble plans 

The faces, shot me, spin me round 

But I won't lie down 

Hard times shake me to the bone 

Face bruised, bloody nose 

Shell shocked, crawling on the ground 

Still I won't lie down 

No I won't lie down 

No I won't lie down 

I won't lie down
