Beauty Sleep

You're nothing, you're nothing, you're nothing but a story

Sprung into my head in the night-time
It’s been a long while
Since you crossed my mind
Still not sure if you’re welcome
But it feels nice

To have you back on my timeline
Looked you up when I woke
You’ve got a kid now
In every picture (oh, picture) he smiles
It was a teenage dream
That said it should’ve been me
To be that guy in the background

Ooh, I loved her at her worst
Because
Ooh, she loved me first

You’re nothing but a story that I, story that I, story that I told
You’re nothing but a story that I, story that I told

I remain, I remain, I remain
You’re nothing but a story that I told
I erased, I erased, I erased
Images of a love, a love so old (that)
I don’t know you anymore
I don’t know you anymore

That life feels like a dream now
A vision in a dark cloud
Running through my mind
Can’t imagine myself like that
Don’t want none of that back
It’s all yours; you can keep mine

Oh, I loved her at her worst
Even when
Her love faded first

I remain, I remain, I remain
You’re nothing but a story that I told
I erased, I erased, I erased
Images of a love, a love so old (that)
I don’t know you anymore
I don’t know you anymore

You’re nothing but a story that I, story that I, story that I told
You’re nothing but a story that I, story that I, story that I sold

I remain, I remain, I remain
You’re nothing but a story that I told
I erased, I erased, I erased
Images of a love, a love so old (that)
I don’t know you anymore
I don’t know you anymore

Ooh, ooh
