Unholy Matrimony

(album: Give Or Take - 2022)

White gown hanging in the closet
Black tuxedo that I never got to wear
No invitation sent out anywhere
We don't have any guests to fill the chairs

I believe we could've been together in a past life
But right now we're committed to the fast life
All we waiting for behind these chapel doors
Is a crashing course to a bad divorce

Walking down the aisle to the organ
Playing Here Comes The Bride as a warning
The reality set in
We don't wanna do this anymore
Can't go through with this no more

Cold feet, someone speak up
Or forever hold your peace
Stand up, say it loud
Hear the whispers in the crowd
Somebody stop us now
Before we say our vows

Rice thrown in the air
Family cheer and praise
Drop top drives away
"Just married" on our plates

Before we get too far and this ends the hard way
Just keep your white gown in the closet
And this black tuxedo that I never get to wear
No flower girl to walk with the ring bearer
No grooms and no raising glass in air

Well now I know we'll never know what happens
When the love just ain't the same no more
There's only divorce, we're waiting for our time
When emotions run their course

White gowns in the closet
And these rings that we'll never get to wear
Bridesmaids won't catch bouquets in the air
Train of garment won't be dragging down the stairs

All our stories ended way too soon
You're suppose to love me to the tomb
Hardly stood a chance to tell the truth
Speak baby, tell me that you knew
We came all this way to lose

But, what I did learn, is
Love will give you what you need
But also, take what you don't appreciate
This is crazy
This is crazy
Anyway, humm
Alright, I'ma get off the phone 'cause
I got some crying to do
It's happy tears though
Love you
