We were children playing house.
    Always on our knees for our lonely
    praying to keep the monsters away.
    We grew up and married one and only.

    We are older no wiser playing house.
    We have kids. We say 'cause I said so.
    We drink and take pills our romance
    with cliches and no where else to go.
