Across the Couch - Single Mothers

Sit tight with that good intention

All is good and don’t ask how

Lend yourself to that reflection

If we were gods back

I wonder what we are now

We’ve been going at thousand miles an hour

Headed straight towards the wall

You’ve just been rising hell

As far as I can tell

With nobody left to call

Mouth the words from across the couch

And let the TV roar

You’re bored

You don’t wanna do this anymore

Settled in to that inflection

Ends are being meet don’t ask how

A few names that I shouldn’t mention

If we were bad back then

I wonder what we are now

They’ve been pushing all over campus

Never don’t answer a call

They’ve got a magic spell

As far as I can tell

They’ve built a kingdom out of stalls

You can be an active drag

You can be a party rag

You can throw the week away

We didn’t come here for the GPA

Until you burn out enjoy it

You’re gonna burn out enjoy it

You’re gonna burn out exploding

I’ll try and catch the sparks

Mouth the words from across the couch

And let the TV roar

You’re bored

You don’t wanna do this anymore

You found yourself some keys to the city

Found yourself some keys to the dorms

London always looked so pretty

But I don’t miss it anymore
