A Tempest in a Teacup
this morning i woke up with a hangover
and a tattoo bandage
and another old song i can’t remember
and it’s a tempest in a teacup
a two drink minimum
it’s altogether meaningless to me

'cause something deep down in my heart
something that made me who i was
invisible
oh, i guess it just didn’t pan out
guess it’s just another heart i broke
a dream i woke up

so now it’s back to the white board
back to the namesake
it's an honest to god ironic rebirth
but it’s a tempest in a teacup
a verdict with no judge
it’s nothing and it’s everything to me

'cause something deep down in my heart
something that made me who i was
invisible
oh, i guess it just didn’t pan out
guess it’s just another heart i broke
a dream i woke up
