Best Excuse

[Verse 1]
Someone repave the yellow-brick road
I  never found my way back home
We  were stuck in a technicolor movie
Now I'm lost in a never-ending lucid dream

[Pre-Chorus 1]
Yes, we're lying carelessly
And  you might just convince me
Each  time we redefine the truth
I get a little more lost in you

[Chorus]
We're  starving artists, seldomely confused
How these breaks never left a bruise
Maybe you are just my headache on a Tuesday afternoon
I don't need a reason when you're my best excuse

[Verse 2]
The  impulse swept me off my feet this time
I needed heart and peace of mind
We were stuck in our own distant fantasies
Somehow still getting lost in each others' dreams

[Pre-Chorus 2]
Yes, we're living carelessly
Moving fast and far between
And we can't redefine the past
I'll return to make these moments last

[Chorus]
We're starving artists, seldomely confused
How these breaks never left a bruise
Maybe you are just my headache on a Tuesday afternoon
I don't need a reason when you're my best excuse

Yes, time is a funny thing
I'm getting lost in these memories
And darling, I can't hide the truth
'Cause every single time I fall for you

[Chorus]
We're starving artists, seldomely confused
How these breaks never left a bruise
Maybe you are just my headache on a Tuesday afternoon
I don't need a reason when you're my best excuse

We're starving artists, seldomely confused
How 2:00 am could feel just like noon
Baby, you could stomp my heart out with your high-heeled boots
I'm letting go of something that I don't wanna lose
