Gidget's hiding under the bed again

She doesn’t like it when we fight

She doesn't understand why mom's upset

And dad is always leaving for a few weeks at a time

She doesn’t get this is the start of something great

She has no concept of sacrifice

Lying on the rug, in a little patch of sun

Licking at your fingers

Sleeping through the worst of times

And while she sleeps we have the talk

Circling around the fact that we're both wondering if we're…

Better off calling this our natural end

Allow ourselves the space and time to think through

Our lives, our plans

Don't hold back just say the safe word and I will untie you

Yeah, yeah, yeah

Yeah, I know I'm doing that thing again

And of course I know you're right

I'm spreading myself thin, saying yes to everything

Just to panic and then blow up on you one random night

Apologize, make up, grow manic, and repeat

This is what fucking up a fairy tale looks like

I'm sensitive and soft

You, stoic shutting off

But I know just what you’re thinking

I know just what you’re thinking

You're thinking that we’re…

Better off calling this our natural end

Allow ourselves the space and time to think through

Our lives, our plans

Don't hold back just say the safe word and I will untie you

Yeah, yeah, yeah

Gidget might be the main witness in

The biggest mistake of our lives

Or maybe this is love

The hammer to the thumb of building something beautiful

Scraping up towards the sky
