LYRICS

Romeo swallowed the poison, and Juliet found him without any air
So tragic, the story, dramatic and gory, with beauty amidst such despair
But there's nothing graceful about you and me
There's no dignified ending, just hate and deceit
And suffering too
From losing you

If there's art in every heartbreak, where's the beauty in my pain?
Where's the movie with the ending where I find true love again?
If there's art in every heartbreak, if there's beauty in my pain
Then why can't I find it, the meaning behind it?
If Shakespeare were here, I wonder what he'd say

Maybe he'd force me to swallow the poison and say he can't save me, it's too late for choices
No love to rejoice in
And, under my breath, I'd say

"There's nothing graceful about you and me
There's no dignified ending, just hate and deceit
And suffering too
From losing you"

If there's art in every heartbreak, where's the beauty in my pain?
Where's the movie with the ending where I find true love again?
If there's art in every heartbreak, if there's beauty in my pain
Then why can't I find it, the meaning behind it?
If Shakespeare were here, I wonder what he'd say

Maybe he could find a way to help us save the spark
Maybe write a new redemption arc
Take our story back to the start
Maybe he could find a way to make it beautiful
Find a way to make this beautiful
Maybe I could find a way to make this beautiful

If there's art in every heartbreak, where's the beauty in my pain?
Where's the movie with the ending where I find true love again?
If there's art in every heartbreak, if there's beauty in my pain
Then why can't I find it, the meaning behind it?
If Shakespeare were here, I wonder what he'd say
