Caught Myself Believing Lyrics by Bleachers
[Verse 1]
Deciphering a look that's in your eye
And the complicated rhythms of trying to get by
I know it's getting crazy
Me dragging all these ghosts out of your flame
Oh, tell me, is it still not safe to dream?
Since I've been a slave to a tired swing memory
I blurred out the faces and bargained with shame
[Chorus]
But I missed myself and I missed you more
Think I saw God on your bedroom floor
Where you shine on and I caught myself believing
[Post-Chorus]
I tried to get away from it all
And slipped on a tire swing melody
[Verse 2]
Well, what's the point of holding on if you can't carry much more than you stole?
And leaving it all behind it feels like it's someone you don't know
Burning some burned-out memories of torn up families
In you, in you I see a war I chose to fight
I believed that I'd been something to see
Can't be high, can't be real, it's hard being perceived
And it pulled me down, and it spun me round and round
[Chorus]
It was a rolling stone and a heart attack
And a million pieces I can't get back
But then you kissed me hard and I caught myself believing
[Bridge]
Don't you know that holding on
Is the same as freezing in time?
What do we take with us right now
And what do we leave behind?
[Chorus]
Oh, I'm so tired, babe, of what I've been before
And it hurts to hurt, I can't take much more
But at least I'm yours
And then you kissed me hard
Oh, honey, rest alone 'cause I caught myself believing
[Outro]
Hold the door
Hold the door, hold the door
Mm
