My Greatest Invention

I wonder where you are right now
 I guess I always do
 People mention you all the time
 Without me asking 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 the hook
 You were the life of the party
 Even when you didn't attend
 I would get lost telling stories
 But I'd always have to change up the end
 I'd complete the collection
 Of my favorite reflections
 With an all-out rejection of our true imperfections
 You were my greatest invention
 It's getting harder keeping 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
 You were the life of the party
 Even when you didn't attend
 I would get lost telling stories
 But I'd always have to change up the end
 I'd complete the collection
 Of my favorite reflections
 With an all-out rejection of our true imperfections
