Lyrics:

I never wanted to be main character

Pretty fucked up there in the light

I'd rather sit at the kitchen table and

Just start to hitch hike

Maybe to me other stories are more interesting

Maybe to me they're a mirror back on everything

So much bigger, bolder, braver than I'll ever be, so

Take a walk with me through these lives

I'm your friend, your lover and your traitor

Take a walk with me through my mind

But I'm an unreliable narrator

I'm your unreliable narrator

There ain't no god up above

Just these hounds of love

We've heard every story before

Genius minds all these fights just to live a life

What's the motive, and what we here for?

David talked about daily trenches of adult life

I'm still hypnotised by the voices inside my mind

When I should sit down, shut up

Listen... just listen... be humble round these stories

Take a walk with me through these lives

I'm your friend, your lover and your traitor

Take a walk with me through my mind

But I'm an unreliable narrator

I'm your unreliable narrator

Can you trust me?

Do you trust me?

So the cliche says "history repeats itself"

Well here we go again

Yeah the cliche says "history repeats itself"

Well here we go again

Take a walk with me through these lives

I'm your friend, your lover and your traitor

Take a walk with me through my mind

Never lay your trust in the narrator
