​the happy ending’s casualty

[Intro]
Okay, so

[Verse 1]
My friends move the country from coastline to coast
My mother keeps flowers hung up on the post
It's one of those days, the hummingbird prays
If God does exist, well, does he love me the same?

[Verse 2]
The medicine does only what it's been told
I wash up the plates and I fold all the clothes
I breathe for your praise, you just find it strange
("It's just kind of weird,")
The human rejection's a sign of the change

[Chorus]
Lately, I don't know why I can't make up the time
Spoil your atrophy, the happy ending's casualty
I sit and stare for summer's end
My wrist will throb, my heart will bend
But all for you, I'd do it all again
So brother, how you been?

[Outro]
Do it again, I can't pretend you're not fading away from me now
Do it again, I can't pretend you're not fading away from me now
