Some Tragedy - The Good Life

I must’ve seemed to you a shipwreck

I looked at you, I saw an island

So I was swept ashore, to lie forevermore

Or at least for the evening

So we went to your apartment

We shared a drink out in the garden

You thought I must’ve pulled this kind of shit

With any willing fool

I shrugged and asked if that’s a problem

So we loved if for an instant and for an instant I forgot

Who I was

So for the night, I was all yours

So I’m sure it was fleeting, and I’m sure I’ve been misleaded

We were just two people in need, it doesn’t have to be

Some fucked up tragedy

I hope I didn’t seem to vulgar

When I asked to come over

It’s just these last few weeks

Well, they’ve been hard on me

I got burned and I can’t seem to recover

And so we loved or so it seemed

And as I slept, I dreamt of Romeo and Juliet

But Romeo was just playing dead

I’m sure it was just a dream

And I’m sure it holds no meaning

But on this sober, hungover morning

Why does it always got to be such a fucked up tragedy?

I tried to tell you but I couldn’t

I wanted to warn you but I need you so bad

I mean right now, you’re all I have
