forever is a lie

This whole thing started so that fathers could sell daughters like property
But I never had a father, and I couldn't be his daughter, so lucky me
The only thing I'm sellin' are songs
But nobody buys those no more

Marriage is a contract 'cause they know that it's another liability
You cut through my legs, through my heart just to get another piece of me (piece of me)
The only thing I'm servin' are facts
But nobody wants those no more

Hey
See, the thing about forever
Is that it's a fucking lie
But I'll love you for tonight
Say with time that it gets better
And that's such a fucking lie
But I'll love you for tonight, oh

I've been tryna wean myself off people who are heteronormative
And we should be arrested 'cause we're saying words like that in pop music
The only things I'm sayin' are facts
But nobody wants those no more
Sorry that I'm bein' emo, oh

Hey, oh, oh
See, the thing about forever
Is that it's a fucking lie
But I'll love you for tonight
Say with time that it gets better
And that's such a fucking lie
But I'll love you for tonight

I'll love you, love you, love you for tonight (love you for tonight)
I'll love you, love you, love you for tonight (love you for tonight)
I'll love you, love you, love you for tonight
But I can't promise tomorrow
