why can't I find love like I find tragedy

I been lookin'
and still I've found nothing

only thing I found myself in
is tragedies

I've been selfish
there's worse than me

although pain is pain
the worst feeling

oh pitty me, and this shitty beat
I could go on for hours about nothing
but at the end of the night I face defeat

why can't I find love like I find tragedy

I been patient
for three years and counting

I've had enough so many times
it's always the same thing

am I lookin'
in the right places

why am I so sure
you even exist

oh pitty me, and this shitty beat
I could go on for hours about nothing
but at the end of the night I face one thing

why can't I find love like I find tragedy

why / can't I find / love
like I find tragedy
why / can't I find / one
out of everybody

why / can't I find / love
while I'm finding myself
why / can't I find / one
do you even need somebody else

you know I've thought a lot about this
be careful where your mind and heart is

you give your all to lose everything
falling in love ends in tragedy

so I'll keep lookin'
but my one priority

is just one thing
and one thing only
me
