[Chorus]
All the songs I wrote a year ago, they're all about me now
I started singing about strangers and it turned around somehow
And all the words I scribbled down thinking they were only fantasy
Turned themselves around and inside-out like a twisted prophecy
[Verse 1]
The one about the love gone wrong, well, I really should have known
When she started staying out real late and rarely coming home
Then there’s the man that shed so many tears, he nearly went insane
Searching the bottom of that bottle for something he could blame
[Chorus]
And all the songs I wrote a year ago, they're all about me now
I started singing about strangers and it turned around somehow
And all the words I scribbled down thinking they were only fantasy
Turned themselves around and inside-out like a twisted prophecy
[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 2]
As the pages kept on turning like the passages of time
And all the words I let fall down thinking they were only rambling rhymes
And all the narratives I structured 'cause they fit within the tune
In the end, they told the story, it’s the tale of me and you
[Chorus]
And all the songs I wrote a year ago, they're all about me now
I started singing about strangers and it turned around somehow
And all the words I scribbled down thinking they were only fantasy
Turned themselves around and inside-out like a twisted prophecy
They turned themselves around and inside-out like a twisted prophecy
