Things Happen - Celeste Version

I could go on talking or I could stop
Ring out each memory 'til I get every drop
Sift through the details of the others involved
The true crime would be thinking it's just one person's fault

Like an honest signature on a fake ID
Like the guilty conscience in the innocent plea
You can just ignore it, put it out of mind
But ain't it funny how the past won't ever let something lie?

Let's make a list of all the things the world has put you through
Let's raise a glass to all the people you're not speaking to
I don't know what else you wanted me to say to you
Things happen
That's all they ever do

In a different time, on a different floor
I might mourn the loss of who I'm not anymore
So I'm driving up to Oakland for a good look back
And a few revisions to my plan of attack

Let's make a list of all the things the world has put you through
Let's raise a glass to all the people you're not speaking to
I don't know what else you wanted me to say to you
Things happen
That's all they ever do

I think I'll see Lily, see where she stands
I can't help how I feel, I don't think anyone can
Sometimes we're lovers, sometimes we're friends
Behold the magnetism between two dead ends

Let's make a list of all the things the world has put you through
Let's raise a glass to all the people you're not speaking to
I don't know what else you wanted me to say to you
Things happen
That's all they ever do

We can qualify the spirit guides you listen to
Or why your mom's compelled to bronze your baby shoes
We can contemplate, but that won't make things clear for you
Things happen
That's all they ever do
That's all they ever do
That's all they ever do
That's all they ever do
