Songtext Unnecessary drama Belle & Sebastian

Unnecessary drama

I read your letter from before
You've been having so much fun
And is it possible you're just telling me
To draw me in?
There's an array of douchebags lining up
To play their stupid parts
And did you ever pause
Before you gave your love away?

And this is my life
This is my so-called life
This is my life
And this is my only life

And when you came to me that summer
You were just a shell
But you were holding close to mother
She was ashen with the strain
And ther? was miles to go yet
Miles to build that sist?r loving bond
And then I figured that the music
Set your soul ablaze

(And this is my life)
And it's probably not surprising
That you're buring through the days (And this is my life)
And if I had a second encore
I would probably do the same (And this is my life)
And if the intimacy ever stops (This is my so-called life)
I'll miss your stories, miss your letters (And this is my life)
Ever awkward fumble should be framed (This is my only life)

Strange day
Poison characters
My particular haze
Please send

Enjoy the fervor of your love life
Cause it doesn't last
And with a suddenness that is cruel
Everything can go to hell
But then you find a new path
Leave the old path
Eave the games behind
And on a morning climb you see the grime
And feel amazed

I know you felt you gave your best
But it was never going to do
There's always going to be a younger
Hungry idol coming through
I know it wasn't thrilling
Just like living
You and me could talk like kissing
Every conversation was divine

And this is my life
This is my so-called life
This is my life
And this is my only life
And this is my life
This is my so-called life
This is my life
And this is my only life
And this is my life
This is my so-called life
This is my life
And this is my only life
And this is my life
This is my so-called life
This is my life
And this is my only life
