Good Losers

Things have changed. It wasn't supposed to be like this.

She was a novelty, a girl to be disregarded.
Somehow she's danced her way into our minds.
Not to mention our homes, our lives, our hearts...
Unfortunately the rest of the world's on fire.
But who cares about all that when we've got the saint in our bed?

Summer is long and I'm trapped in a luxurious mansion.
There are worse vacations.
But betrayal is fresh on our minds.
A political crisis is looming, and we helped it to flourish.
Now there are two realities:
The outside world, with its surging anger and chaos in the streets.
And the one we delve into at night, of moonlight and mouths and memories.

I know which one I prefer — because, despite it all, I think I'm falling madly in love.
