On the Picket Fence - The Good Life

Things are good

We should take a polaroid, a memento

Before the moment’s destroyed

We constantly bicker, these flickering moods

We’re hardly making any sense

Either you love me or you leave me

Don’t you leave me on this picket fence

It’s been hard

We’ve both got our histories

That haunt these homes

But I ain’t bathing in our misery

So pour me a drink and don’t pour it too weak

And grab it from the top shelf

I ain’t asking for redemption

And this ain’t no cry for help

Well, things are good

We take it all for granted

We turn that wheel

Back to all our bad habits

But I don’t believe we need love to succeed

But the least you could do is pretend

Either you love me or you leave me

Don’t you leave me on this picket fence

Either you love me or you’ll leave me, don’t you leave me
