lyrics

verse 1:
“you make me touch the sky”
is a line that other people
would write about you
but the sky is just a normal thing
that lover's make-believe
hovers above a fairytale dream
as if they both weren’t so far out of reach

chorus
oh, there’s the verse about the Sheetz that almost killed us
or the bridge that rectified your future fears
sometimes i wish i didn’t write them
‘cause i thought you’d be
a happy song

verse 2:
“everything happens for a reason”
is a line that other people
would write about you
but that reasoning is based upon
a reality that flickers on
your movie watchin’ screen
i feel the earth has some explaining to do

chorus:
oh, there’s the verse about the ugly goodwill jacket
or the bridge that sat and listened to your tears
sometimes i wish i didn’t write them
'cause i thought you’d be
a happy song

verse 3:
“it’s not you, it’s only me”
is a line you tried to say
confidently!
but love is only blind until first sight
a two-way street with construction signs
and one-stoplight
green, green, green, green
red

bridge:
if you want me to
i could sing so many nice things about you

chorus:
oh, here’s the chorus that i’m pushing through right now
and that bridge didn’t fix much of anything
sometimes i wish i didn’t write them
but i’m still so glad that they happened

because once you were
a happy song
and when they were done i thought you’d
sing along
cause i was sure you’d stay
a happy song
