You’ve been smiling a little less lately
I’m pretty sure it’s got something to do with me
I know the stress of these months
Has driven a wedge between us
Guess we’ll see if our love is strong enough
Life was humming along with a sweet melody
Now all I hear every day is one long scream
Some days it’s more than I can stand
All these financial demands
You got a second job and I joined a band
And I’m doing breathing exercises to help me sleep at night
You’re always overworked, but you tell me it’s alright
I know once we get through this, things will settle down
Just gotta get through this, gotta get through this somehow
Now we’re in crisis mode every other day
Doing our best to keep each other sane
I haven’t been pulling my weight
You always say it’s okay
But I don’t know if we can take the strain
I’m trying to give you what you need
But it’s slowly killing me
And I’m doing breathing exercises to help me sleep at night
You’re always overworked, but you tell me it’s alright
I know once we get through this, things will settle down
Just gotta get through this, gotta get through this somehow
One week before the wedding, you’re having dreams of me leaving
I tell you they mean nothing, but you’re not convinced
And all these breathing exercises still don’t help me sleep at night
You’re working every day, and way too many nights
If we can both get through this, everything will settle down
Just gotta get through this...somehow
