Lyrics
Little Tragedies
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
You bought a gun. 'cause you thought I wouldn't listen.
To your mouth full of nails shining like the afternoon.
With a face that would topple tidal waves.
And takes the time away.
And every pilot learns to fly to steal the blue with pirateseyes.
Whaa
I better be careful that I don't, I better be careful that Idon't, I
better be careful that I don't slip into one more of you little
tragedies.
You took off your clothes, to remind me of the ocean.
Then set fire to your hair, and went dancing like a daisy.
Sha la la la. And broken bodies bait, it leaves lessaftertaste.
And early warning weather flies. With rusty comets seen by
naked eyes.
I better be careful that i don't, I better be careful that Idon't, I
better be careful that i don't slip into one more of yourlittle
tragedies.
'Cause that would be no (no) good for me right now
That would be no good for me.
That would be no (no) good for me right now.
That would be no good for me.
And this one gives you super strenght.
And a yaaaaa whoo
I better be careful that I don't, I better be careful that Idon't, I
better be careful that I don't slip into one more of yourlittle
tragedies.
Whooo-ooo
I better be careful that I don't, I better be careful that Idon't, I
Better be careful that I don't slip into one more of yourlittle
tragedies.
