lyrics

write down that clever thing I said in the car
on our way to see the stars
told me we might spy the Northern Lights that night
but our chances
they were small
and they’re just an illusion
like the theory that things come easy for me
you call me effortless
I call your bluff

and the odds haven’t been in my favor
roll the dice
call snake eyes
but it’s sixes on both sides

like the walls of Babylon
this was meant to crumble and fall down
if we get all what we what deserve
are we the villains now?

testify that I can’t lie
it is not is my constitution
constellation in the sky
shows my fate for a reason
scrape my bitten nails right down your back
and ask, “in a past life, was I a wicked wife?”
and it’s just an illusion
like the theory that things come easy

like the walls of Babylon
this was meant to crumble and fall down
if we get all what we what deserve
are we the villains now?

like a cautionary tale
guess we were not destined to prevail
if we all get what we deserve
I’ll keep on chasing the white whale
