Tragic Lyrics

[Verse 1]
They say that lightning never strikes twice
In the same spot when it's landed
You ought to see the thundercloud I'm trapped in
Head down looking for a tactic
Trying to find a way up out the gravity around me
I'm attached to stuck
Floating on luck like a river raft was
Spitting up love like it's ipecac
If in fact there's a quicker path to diminish that
I'ma get a first class ticket just to finish last
Often, who's watching, chip another crooked ass tooth on my options
The blues never had a use for its caution
And cut right through me like a razor bladed harsh wind
Yeah, I guess I'm living off a habit,
And digging up graves just to reseal the casket
Bold-faced, marching to the middle of the havoc
Just so I can sing a song about it all
Tragic

[Hook]
You act like this can save me, hey hey hey
You act like I don't know, you don't know
I act like I've gone crazy, and all of this can save me,
But I don't really know

[Verse 2]
I don't know no more my brother, me and my blue sensitivities
Look at all that this music has given me
Intimately in tune with my misery
I can spin bad news to a symphony
I ain't a boy in a bubble, I'm a man in touch with my joy and my trouble
Got a fighting chance at love in this ugliness,
I think hope deserves to know what she's up against
Blues and 12s I write 24s, life's twice as hard, fighting with the cards
Those chosen the moment we were born
Highs and lows, joys and woes, they're yoursGrieves - Tragic - http://motolyrics.com/grieves/tragic-lyrics.html
Chase the blues and one day you're gonna catch them
Sing em all you want, you gonna wish you never met them
Humming the ballad of the paper-thin jacket
Trapped in the rain again
Tragic

[Hook]
You act like this can save me, hey hey hey
You act like I don't know, you don't know
I act like I've gone crazy, and all of this can save me,
But I don't really know

[Verse 3]
I don't know what the deal is,
But lately I've been looking through a thick glass
Squinting just to see the smidgen of the kickbacks
My little ticker only flickers with a mishap
And lashes out at me every time that I admit that
Look at what I did with the ashes,
Smoking in the boy's room, ditching out of classes
Hands full of shattered stained glass with a grasp tight around it
Just enough to make a couple wounds last
As scars, medals, rose pedals,
Scattered on the path like it's Hansel and Gretel
Burn from the water I splash from the kettle
In efforts to make a documentation of what I went through
Hell, I guess I'm playing from the attic,
Pulling up the floorboards, digging up the hatchet
Firm footed, standing in the middle of the static
Just so I can sing a song about it all
Tragic

[Hook]
You act like this can save me, hey hey hey
You act like I don't know, you don't know
I act like I've gone crazy, and all of this can save me,
But I don't really know
