Tryna feel
something real
To cry again
They say the
artist needs tears
To write again
'Cause all of my
favorite stories
End in some kind
of catastrophe
But I don't need
someone to save me
'Cause this music
and I will never die
It's such a
f***** situation
Petal in the pavement
Just as long as she
keeps getting it right
Heartbreak won't
bite here in paradise
This is such a
convenient conflation
This record in rotation
Long as she gets
the ovation each night
Heartbreak won't
bite, this is paradise
I hear them all say,
Ooh, ooh-ooh,
ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
They say, Ooh,
ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh,
ooh-ooh
Tell me who's to blame,
is it the people
myself? Yep
But this time feels
so very different,
this is not a cry for help
A couple million
for my thoughts,
I've got plenty
But I am not the
victim, b****,
I'm practically drowning
in my blessings
It's bye,
this time for real
Tired of painting
endless pictures of a
life that isn't mine
Trying different
boys on for size
If this is my curse,
I'll let it ride, ride
All of my
favorite stories
End in some kind
of catastrophe
But I don't need
someone to save me
'Cause this music and
I will never die
It's such a
f***** situation
Petal in the pavement
Just as long as she
keeps getting it right
Heartbreak won't
bite here in paradise
This is such a
convenient conflation
This record in rotation
Long as she gets the
ovation each night
Heartbreak won't bite,
this is paradise
I hear them all say,
Ooh, ooh-ooh,
ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
They say, Ooh,
ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh,
ooh-ooh
I hear them all say,
Ooh-ooh,
ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
They say, Ooh,
ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh,
ooh-ooh
