Curse

(album: I Love You, You're The Worst - 2020)

Everybody's underneath a curse
But it doesn't work on me
Everybody's out there getting hurt
But I'm doing perfectly
And the world's gone mad
Isn't it sad
I'm the only one who understands?
Everybody's underneath a curse
It's so absurd
Lucky, it doesn't work on me

It's delusional, insanity
All staring at each other like zombies
You put yourself through all kinds of hell
Just to share the nights with someone else

Once I came pretty close
God, I'm so grateful that she let me go
I'm better on my own
Don't know how you people cope

Everybody's underneath a curse
But it doesn't work on me
Everybody's out there getting hurt
But I'm doing perfectly
And the world's gone mad
Isn't it sad
I'm the only one who understands?
Everybody's underneath a curse
A stupid word
Lucky, it doesn't work on me

Yeah, expensive date and city breaks
Burning through your money, what a waste
And I don't need to memorise
Anniversaries and valentines

Don't try to pull me in
To your world of movie scripts and violins
I can't be fooled you see
I've got immunity

Everybody's underneath a curse
But it doesn't work on me
Everybody's out there getting hurt
But I'm doing perfectly
And the world's gone mad
Isn't it sad
I'm the only one who understands?
That everybody's underneath a curse
It's so absurd
I waited ages for my turn
Turns out it doesn't work on me
