Something Happened

You were taking your time walking down the lane A drunken bike ride last night has you limping today So I called you just to check in to make sure you're alright You made some bad decisions overall an awkward night My god you think to yourself why not could have it been anyone else And you play it over and over all the honest things you said Cringe as I remind you oh the palpable regret This life can be so relentless You can have the best intentions but your executions tragic There's no reason to go on but the love for all your friends The joy of connection when all reasoning has fled Explain to me your trauma as you're lying in the grass I don't quite remember ever seeing you this sad So I called you just to check in to make sure you alright There's a dark cloud over your head and there's nothing else in sight My god you think to yourself why not could've I become anyone else And you play it over and over all the ways it could've gone Each one ending badly so you might as well live on This life can be so relentless When there's nothing but oppressive annihilating sadness There's no reason to go on but the love for all your friends The joy of connection when all reasoning has fled It's you Your hands and your face Imagine little sparks as all this chemistry takes place Imagine little sparks as all this chemistry takes place You're not looking back or we both are at different times
