lyrics

Things fall apart
We can't change who we are
Friends come and go
But we know
We've got our love

Your relatives ruffled your feathers
But you flew beautifully any who
Anyhow despite the devilish disavow
Conjured by first cousins who spite your demeanor
I mean ya'
Grace is taken for granted
But you still manage to maneuver despite the damage
That Pentecost your heart a loss
You bore a cross without a Calvary to support your claim
I'm saying that
I witnessed your resentment but lacked sufficient attention
To tend to ill offenses, you mentioned
My vision's so vivid
I'm sort of living in reverse
Wishing I could return the hurt
And cast a curse like Voodoo at whose who
Soon as our families acted boo-boo
Copping squats to boycott our matrimony and defalcate on our devotion
Butt their fecal didn't matter much to us
We still dealt a royal flush because

Things fall apart
We can't change who we are
Friends come and go
But we know
We've got our love
Things fall apart
We can't change who we are
Friends come and go
But we know
We've got our love

We decided to collide
Take flight at new heights and find
Some heaven on earth to serve peace to mind
Kind'a sort of
Sorting disorder whenever rumors ordered
Our attention to tend to friends who prioritized our demise
Much to my surprise
We said hello to holy hell in a hellhole well told in hindsight
Seeking some sort of silver lining in limelight over key lime pie and
Deserted by friends we figured we were deserving of
I'm so certain love
That we're lightyears away
From the Martians who alienated our space
But only you can say that UFO for a lifetime

Things fall apart
We can't change who we are
Friends come and go
But we know
We've got our love
Things fall apart
We can't change who we are
Friends come and go
But we know
We've got our love
