tragedy - lovelorn


 I've been crying too much now-a-days

Black tears stain my satin beige gaze

What were we going to say?

That our stars misaligned in some mysterious way?


That's the problem with the superficial love

That everybody seems to want

Skin tight hugs and kisses

Everyone wants to be a part of it

Only a few weeks ago we were invisible

Struck by lightning we ended up a tragedy, passive and whole


Truth is sometimes I forget how I thought it would be worth it

There were so many critical lights shining on us and rabid

Every step we took would be compared to a crook

And it would last long enough to cause a scandal and accuse me of holding a grudge


That's the problem with the superficial love

That everybody seems to want

Skin tight hugs and kisses

Everyone wants to be a part of it

Only a few weeks ago we were invisible

Struck by lightning we ended up a tragedy, passive and whole


Are we every Hollywood front page story

Hiding from flashlight impromptu glory

We leave a trail broken hearts, for somebody

It's a stepping stone for every successor

On their way to seal a spot on the throne of bones

Are we every heartbroken wanna be

Color coded swings at every magazine

Postmortem essays about how fame is a drug

That poisons conceptions of how to love


That's the problem with the superficial love

That everybody seems to want

Skin tight hugs and kisses

Everyone wants to be a part of it

Only a few weeks ago we were invisible

Struck by lightning we ended up a tragedy, passive and whole.
