GRAVEYARD OF CUTE AND CRAZY VERSE 1 I used to fall like a man with bad brakes Headfirst into trouble wearing a pretty face Every promise felt forever for a week or two Every goodbye left another ghost tattoo I chased sparks through bars and back roads Collected stories nobody should own Thought every storm was a sign from above Turns out chaos and love aren't the same thing PRE-CHORUS You learn some lessons slow By counting scars instead of years CHORUS I've loved saints, sinners, and beautiful disasters The kind that burn bright and leave nothing after The graveyard of cute and crazy I left behind in the past Still rattles its chains when the memories pass I've loved angels with dirty hands Devils who swore they'd understand But every road I took comes looking for me From the graveyard of cute and crazy VERSE 2 Some wore kindness like a borrowed coat Some hid knives inside hopeful notes Some were heartbreak dressed up as home Some just wanted someone not to be alone And maybe I wasn't innocent too A little broken, a little hard to get through Trying to build a future with hands full of ghosts Wondering why nothing stayed BRIDGE The litany of cute and crazy stretches behind me Like highway lines at midnight Miles of wrong turns and almost-forevers Fading into taillights I've loved saints, sinners, and beautiful disasters Every one a lesson written in laughter and ashes And somewhere between the wreckage and grace I finally learned what I couldn't replace FINAL CHORUS I've loved saints, sinners, and beautiful disasters The kind that shape you long after The graveyard of cute and crazy I left behind in the past Still waves from the dark as I'm driving past But I'm not looking back to live there again Just tipping my hat to the places I've been Because every wrong road helped make me who I am Leaving flowers in the graveyard of cute and crazy
