How much money would I save if the grass didn’t appear greener?
I’ve been in here weekly since the first time I seen her.
My marriage is on the rocks & so are my drinks.
Distractions top poles, my pockets are empty by the time she splits and sinks.
Watching her take her clothes off feel like a load off.
I know I’m off my game here but i learn a lot from a road loss.
See, I’ve lost the advantage at home too.
So I convince myself you care about me & it’s not about the money I’ve thrown you.
You look at me like she used to.
Eyes that don’t stare and see everything we’ve gone through.
If it’s right we like It, if it’s wrong we’ll love It.
I can’t afford mistakes yet I fit them in my budget.
I can’t look to the sky in here, are wondering eyes a sin?
Every night I feel like losing my commitment would be a win.
& suddenly that’s when,
I remember I told her I’d be home by ten.
