We Can't Have Nice Things Lyrics

My heart is beating faster

Sweat pooling on my skin

Is this love or just a panic attack?

What kind of trouble am I in?

When there's lightning and thunder

And you crave the chaos it brings

Babe, it's no wonder

We can't have nice things

Countdown to a crisis

What fresh hell is this?

I'm not in control here

I feel like I missed a text

When the world breaks asunder

And you're left dancing on a string

Babe, it's no wonder

We can't have nice things

I can't understand you

Not a single word you say

We speak the same language

But when I say night, you see day

When love is six feet under

And our hearts forget how to sing

Babe, it's no wonder

We can't have nice things

When the world breaks asunder

And you're left dancing on a string

Babe, it's no wonder

We can't have nice things

Babe, it's no wonder

You know it's no wonder

We can't have nice things
