What We Signed Up For

[Verse 1] You’re folding shirts on the couch Clients keep calling my phone We talk about the school trip The cracked tile in the bathroom How rent is due on Friday How your sister’s staying over I’m watching your hands shake a little You’re watching me avoid your eyes [Chorus] This isn’t what we said at the altar But it’s what we’re saying now at the kitchen table You keep asking if I’m sure I keep asking if you’re angry We both circle the same sentence We both know it’s already true [Verse 2] Your lawyer’s name is written on a yellow sticky note Mine is saved as just an initial We argue about the couch You say it fits better in your new place I say I don’t care Then I picture the dent where our kid used to jump I care more than I admit You hear it in the way I go quiet [Bridge] You’ll take the plant from the window I’ll keep the mugs from that weekend away The dog will stay with you Because you wake up earlier We agree on alternating weekends We pretend that word means something simple Like laundry days or movie nights Not learning how to be guests in our child’s life [Chorus]
