Good Grief Lyrics - Dessa

They say there's good grief 

But how can you tell it from the bad? 

Maybe it's only in the fact 

Good grief's the one that's in your past 

I got snow in my pockets 

Went down again head first 

Laced drill bits to my pointe shoes 

Pirouette through the hardwood to paydirt 

Night falls, day breaks; time 

Has a funny kind of violence and I'm 

Tryna keep in mind 

It can't leave you the way it finds you 

Good grief: 

I've heard people say it 

What a phrase, what a state to be in 

But I don't know where they go to get get 

That feeling 

Good grief 

And my knees stay clean 

Not much for praying 

I do my own stunts and my own saving 

But there's something amiss 

Something I been missing maybe maybe

They say there's good grief 

But how can you tell it from the bad? 

Maybe it's only in the fact 

Good grief's the one that's in your past 

They say there's good grief 

But how can you tell it from the bad? 

Maybe it's only in the fact 

Good grief's the one that's in your past 

This time my best wasn't good enough 

Well, fuck, usually it is 

And the air got a little rough 

Took out the fuselage, the engine, and both wings 

But I'm willing to work for this 

Just show me where to dig 

And I'm ready to hurt for this 

I know exactly what this is 

Good grief 

I want that good grief 

The one that heals me 

That leaves me clarified by fire 

When I'm burned clean 

Tempered by light and heat 

Ah, by the dead of morning 

I'll be better for it 

And then fortified I'll rise 

Bust the hydrant, let it spray champagne 

Wings are broken but I feel no pain 

It's real today, I know this feeling, let it rain

They say there's good grief 

But how can you tell it from the bad? 

Maybe it's only in the fact 

Good grief's the one that's in your past 

They say there's good grief 

But how can you tell it from the bad? 

Maybe it's only in the fact 

Good grief's the one that's in your past 

And secrets don't like to be kept 

All mine jumped over the fence 

I guess I should be upset 

But I'm in my nightgown on the lawn 

Thinking, better that they're gone 

I've been afraid of this so long 

It's a relief when it goes wrong 

'Cause I'm here now, and asking 

Melt me down, recast me burn me clean 

Like glass from sandy ground 

'Cause I'm here now, and asking 

Melt me down, recast me burn me clean 

Like glass from sandy ground 

They say there's good grief 

But how can you tell it from the bad? 

Maybe it's only in the fact 

Good grief's the one that's in your past
