I don’t
need no cure, love
I don’t ail, love
Thought things were good enough
Guess it got away from me
I’m no good at laundry, commonsense, or boundaries
You may have thought me a little rough ‘round the edges, sorry
I thought you knew the real me
But you don’t know me
You once said that we had it all, once upon untimely
And I don’t need no cure now or any other day
‘cause life is beautiful despite your aftertaste
Remember how we started
Dearly beloved
How soon did we find ourselves nearly departed?
I thought you were my angel
With wings entangled, you wouldn’t stop at good enough
How could you fly away from the one you were once sure of?
On any other day
You’d be beautiful despite your love misplaced
Maybe someday you’ll find it
Then you’ll be reminded
We were beautiful before love laid waste
And I don’t need no cure now or any other day
‘cause life is beautiful despite its aftertaste
Its hard to feel undaunted when you’re unwanted
You found yourself another fool
You didn’t have to flaunt it
And I don’t need no cure now or any other day
‘cause life is beautiful despite the holidays
And I don’t need no cure now or any other day
‘cause life is beautiful despite our separate ways
Despite love laid waste
