petal

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 fucked 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 paradisе

I hear them all say, "Ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh" (Mm-mm, mm)
They say, "Ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh" (Mm-mm)

Tеll me who's to blame, is it the people or 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
Bitch, 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

’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 fucked 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" (Mm-mm, mm)
They say, "Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh" (Mm-mm)
I hear them all say, "Ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh" (Mm-mm, mm)
They say, "Ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh" (Mm-mm)
