Camera Obscura - My Maudlin Career Lyrics

You kissed me on the forehead
Now this kiss is giving me a concussion
We were love at first sight
Now this crush, it's crushing

I chased your steps
Through the city of romance lazily
I took to the desert
But your heart just whines and deceive me

Now we're in love again
And you're
I'm not a child I know
We're not going steady

Your pain's gigantic
But it's not as big as your ego
Promise not to abandon you
Please let me go

Now I've been wearing your feelings
Like they were worth protecting
They say I'm too kind and sentimental
Like you could catch affection

Oh, in your eyes there's a sadness
Enough to kill the both of us
Are those eyes overrated
They make me wanna give up on love

And I'll brace myself for the holiness
Say hello to feelings that I detest

This maudlin career has come to an end
I don't want to be sad again
This maudlin career has come to an end
I don't want to be sad again

This maudlin career has come to an end
I don't want to be sad again

This maudlin career has come to an end
I don't want to be sad again
This maudlin career has come to an end
I don't want to be sad again
