The Songs I Didnt Write by Creaky Boards Lyrics

Genre: pop | Year: 2008

When you have gone to bed
And I am alone inside my head
I turn on the stereo
The one only I can know

And I hear the songs
That I didn't write
I hear what they sounded like
All over town, all over town, all over town

It would have made me cry
What would have fallen from your eye
Would have destroyed our love
And I would say

Oh my god, oh my god, what was I thinking of

Every night it plays a little louder
Telling me to sing a little louder
Telling me I can't escape
Escape the way I am a little louder
Every night I open up my folder
To collect the words
I heard in the songs
That I didn't write
I heard what they sounded like
All over town, all over town, all over town

But when you heard the notes
That would have vaulted from my throat
There is a meaning past the awfulness
That something pure and true
That would have been great

It would have made me cry
What would have fallen from my eye
Merely had poisoned me
And I would say
Oh my god, oh my god, I had to get it out

Every night it plays a little louder
Telling me to sing a little louder
Telling me I can't escape
Escape the way I am a little louder
Every night my pen is getting drier
Writing down the words

I sing in the songs
That I didn't write
I sing what they sounded like
All over town, all over town, all over town
But when you heard the poem
That would have shook around our home
There is an chance it could have broken down
The walls around our bed
It could have been great

I hear the songs and what they sounded like (x4)
I hear the songs
