Lyrics Tryna feel something real To cry again They say the artist needs tears To write again All of my favorite stories End in some kind of catastrophe But I don't need someone to save me 'Cause this music and I will never die It's such a situation Petal in the pavement Just as long as she keeps getting it right Heartbreak won't bite Here in paradise Such a convenient conflation This record in rotation Long as she gets the ovation each night Heartbreak won't bite This is paradise I hear them all say ooh, ooh, ooh They say ooh, ooh, ooh Tell me who's to blame Is it the people or myself But this time feels so very different This is not a cry for help Couple million for my thoughts I've got plenty But I'm not a victim I'm Practically drowning in my blessings It's bye This time for real Tired of painting endless pictures Of a life that isn't mine Trying different boys on for size If this is my curse I'll let it ride All of my favorite stories End in some kind of catastrophe But I don't need someone to save me 'Cause this music and I will never die It's such a situation Petal in the pavement Just as long as she keeps getting it right Heartbreak won't bite Here in paradise Such a convenient conflation This record in rotation Long as she gets the ovation each night Heartbreak won't bite This is paradise I hear them all say ooh, ooh, ooh They say ooh, ooh, ooh I hear them all say ooh, ooh, ooh They say ooh, ooh, ooh
