Lovers Who Have Lost Their Cause - Matt Pryor

I’m really in a tryst if her heart don’t break

You’re just here to occupy a time and space

It isn’t an affair if nobody cares

You’re lovers who have lost their cause

After this is over, give him back his shirt

And he’ll just wring it out when he gets back to work

Her husband may have learned it’s no concern

So I guess you guys have got it made

Over the hill

But you justify it still

You must think this is the thrill to end all

You could just be lovers you can’t be friends

At least then the attraction is genuine

May it’s the baggage that turns you on

Now that all the danger’s gone

After this is over go back to your house

You don’t have a single thing to talk about

It may be for the best if just the sex

As long as you don’t have to speak

A torrid affair

I don’t think anybody cares

And the both of you would swear there’s no fire

If this doesn’t last

Then you’ll both look back and laugh

At the moment in your past that made you liars

Go ahead and tell her you won’t be back

She isn’t gonna take it like a heart attack

You can rest assured, you’re both so bored

There won’t be any drama kid

Then when you were summoned to your den of sin

She would drop the hammer that did you in

There’s a beau, you’ll have to go

I guess she’ll kick you to the skids

Sooner or later, you knew you were tempting fate

If you soared to heights so great, you may fall

Let me be first to say though this probably hurt

It will hardly the worst day of them all

Tell me what you learned then, from this

Love can be just too damn dangerous

And even though you thought you’d the one

She beat you to the punch

And now you’ve gotta run.

Now you’ve gotta run
