Just Married

(album: Rolling Up The Welcome Mat (For Good) - 2023)

I don't think I lied when I said I wanted that life
Maybe I was too young to understand what I wanted to begin with
But babe, it was true, with all that I knew
It felt like forever that December, too
A fairytale start, crossing our hearts
Rode off in a car that said, "Just Married"

But I wasn't made for fixing a plate or keeping our problems buried
I wasn't strong enough to keep on with all of the weight that I carried
Yeah, it was love
Then it was just married

Long distance texts, make-up-for-time sex
Tired of asking when I'll see you next
I'm too mad to fight, so I stare and cry
At the picture of you and me wearing white
Just married
Just married

But I wasn't made for fixing a plate or keeping our problems buried
No, I wasn't strong enough to hold on with all of the weight that I carried
Yeah, it was love
Then it was just married

It was a beautiful wedding
Sometimes I still taste the Veuve
And dammit, I wish I wasn't this ready
To undo I do

But I wasn't made for fixing a plate and getting divorced sounds scary
But I'm just not strong enough to hold on with all of the weight that I carried
Yeah, it was love
It really was
Then it was just married
