[Verse 1]Found a cheap therapistStarted taking vitaminsAnd gave up on all my friendsI bought some self help booksStopped giving myself dirty looksAnd started breathing againGot really into dirty martinisStuck a rainbow key chain on my rear viewTo remind myself the pot of goldIs always just up the road[Chorus]Bottom line, I survived yeahSpent all year being so dramaticWell it was sad and I was lonelyBut I'm standing here alive in this momentWhy's it gotta be, why's it gotta beTragic, tragic[Verse 2]In the spirit of full disclosureAfter 5 years it was overMoved out, found an apartment across townWrote a whole album about itCalled my sister to cry about itAnd listen to Chris Martin sing "Magic" for the 99th timeLeft my heart in two dozen statesAnd got a credit card, couldn't pay it offGuess sometimes you just surprise yourselfWith what you do to move on[Chorus]Bottom line, I survived yeahSpent all year being so dramaticWell it was sad and I was lonelyBut I'm standing here alive in this momentWhy's it gotta be, why's it gotta beTragic, tragic[Bridge]Oh, some days, some daysIt's not okay, okay, yeahBut some day, some dayI'm gonna be okay, okay[Chorus]Bottom line, I survived yeahSpent all year being so dramaticWell it was sad and I was lonelyBut I'm standing here alive in this momentWhy's it gotta be, why's it gotta beTragic, tragic
