Tryna feel somethin' 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**ked situation
Petal in the pavement
Just as long as she keeps
getting it right
Heartbreak won't bite here
in paradise
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 oo
Oo oo oo oo oo oo
Oo oo oo
Oo oo oo oo oo oo oo
Tell me who's to blame
Is it the people or myself yeah
But this time feels so
very different
This is not a cry for help
A couple million for
my thoughts
I got plenty
But I am not the victim b**th
I'm practically drownin' in
my blessings
It's bye this time for real
Tired of painting endless
pictures of a life
that isn't mine
Tryin' different boys on for size
If this is my curse
I'll let it ride ride
'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**ked situation
Petal in the pavement
Just as long as she keeps
getting it right
Heartbreak won't bite here
in paradise
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 oo
Oo oo oo oo oo oo
Oo oo oo
Oo oo oo oo oo oo oo
I hear them all say
Oo oo oo oo oo oo
Oo oo oo
Oo oo oo oo oo oo oo
