lyrics

I'll Write the Sad Songs

She sings songs from before I was born, and slightly out of key
She finds a way to be every cliche, but that's alright with me

Because I love the songs, that make me feel
Like someone else, knows what its like to reveal
All of the feelings that seem to make sense
So I'll write the sad songs....you write the hits

I give up when the going gets tough, it just comes naturally
And you may say I tuck my feelings away, but that's how I like to be

Because I like the songs, that won't get heard
Where I leave my hat, to hang on every word
A backbeat's no substitute for content
So I'll write the sad songs....you write the hits

We go together like sha-la-la-la, or Kurt and Courtney
One bad look away from ruining our day, but that's how we like to be

Because I love the songs, that make me see
That someone else, has had it way worse than me
Misery fuels my creative fits, so I'll write the sad songs
I'll write the sad songs
I'll write the sad songs
