Dawes - My Greatest Invention [tekst, tłumaczenie i interpretacja piosenki]

[Verse 1]
I wonder where you are right now
I guess I always do
People mention you all the time
Without me askin' them to
I take the dirt they give me
I put it in the books
I smear around the memories
Until I like how it looks
I get a taste for everything
Then I swallow your hook

[Chorus]
You are the life of the party
Even when you didn't attend
How to get lost tellin' stories
But I'd always have to change out the end
I'd complete the collection
Of my favorite reflections
With an all-out rejection
Of our true imperfections
You are my greatest invention

[Verse 2]
It's gettin' harder keepin' order
My different versions of you
Which one's just an answer to a question?
Which one is actually true?
You can turn a second inside out
And end up with an eternity
But to polish up a diamond
You have to clear some debris
It doesn't work for everyone
But it works for me

[Chorus]
You are the life of the party
Even when you didn't attend
How to get lost tellin' stories
But I'd always have to change out the end
I'd complete the collection
Of my favorite reflections
With an all-out rejection
Of our true imperfections
You are my greatest invention

[Instrumental]

[Chorus]
You are the life of the party
Even when you didn't attend
How to get lost tellin' stories
But I'd always have to change out the end
I'd complete the collection
Of my favorite reflections
With an all-out rejection
Of our true imperfections
You are my greatest invention
You are my greatest invention
I wonder where you are right now
I guess I always do
