Camera Obscura - My Maudlin Career lyrics

You kissed me on the forehead
Now this kiss is giving me a concussion
We were love at first sight
Now this crush is crushing
I retraced your steps through the
City of romance lazily
I took to the desert with your
Harshest words and they saved me

I'll bail you out again, I've got the readies
I'm not a child I know we're not going steady
Your pain's gigantic but it's not
As big as your ego
I promise not to abandon you, please
Let me go

I've harbored worried feelings like
They were worth protecting
You say I'm too kind and sentimental
Like you could catch affection
Oh in your eyes there's a sadness enough
To kill the both of us
Are those eyes overrated? They make me
Want to give up on love

I'll brace myself for the loneliness
Say hello to feelings that I detest
This maudlin career must come to an end
I don't want to be sad again
This maudlin career must come to an end
I don't want to be sad again
This maudlin career must come to an end
I don't want to be sad again
This maudlin career must come to an end
I don't want to be sad again
This maudlin career must come to an end
I don't want to be sad again
