"Nice Things" lyrics

"Nice Things"

Halcyon days come by
I wanna scream
They say the future's bright
Finding it in my soul to pick up the line
It's never a good time

I got things on my mind I know you will trivialize (I'm so)
Self-obsessed in my bed all this time
Thing I've loved in my blood
And it feels like coming up
Yet it keeps me drowning

Nice things
Why can't I? (Why can't I have nice things?)
Nice things
Why can't I? (Why can't I have nice things?)
Nice things
Why can't I? (Why can't I have nice things?)
(Things, I have nice)

There's things you can't come back from
You're one of them
There's no light at the end
It's like the cherry end of your cigarette
It was always what you never said
Take a metaphor over the straight talking, oh

I got things on my mind I know you will trivialize (I'm so)
Self-obsessed in my bed all this time
Thing I've loved in my blood
And it feels like coming up
Yet it keeps me drowning

Gosh boys, violence, ice cream, cocaine
Extreme domestic dreams
Diamond regrets, heart-shaped objects
Freedoms of a man (Yeah)

(Nice things)
There's things you can't come back from
You're one of them
