Something Happened

On A Sign of Good Luck

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

You're not looking back or we both are at different times
