Lyrics

Coulda been more than this,

Wouldn’t you know?

I worked hard to raise my position

Learned to hold my own, still he saw I was itching.

Fuel to fire,

I don’t believe in getting tired.

Most of all I didn’t want to be left alone,

Married to the waning rings of the telephone.

Stayin up late, shredding paper wastin ink/

Since u been.

Out there flipping later, I’ve been acting/

Neat & clean since u been.

Hotel letterhead can’t be cutting it/

Dry since u been.

Dipping your fingers, I’ve been tripping/

Since u been.

Cutting straws so you start to linger, banking hours/

Since u been.

Taking for granted you deplore it/

Neat & clean since u been.

Closing your eyes to hopes of staying/

Dry since u been.

Dipping your fingers, I’ve been tripping/

Since u been.

Mostly it’s night when I notice,

I’ve been holding back, my focus been whack.

I’da done anything for your bounce back.

Hold me hold me close,

God knows where he goes.

Imagine slanging ‘till I’m dreaming he’s a ghost.

Didn’t have to drag the babies in it,

So opposed to rubbers when he’s hitting it.

Didn’t hit it for long,

Told me I was withdrawn.

Now I’m really hanging back,

While you’re out there playing snatch.

Fast and loose with your paychecks,

Expecting me to hit reset.

Guess that’s what wife means to them,

Cushion for his sinning

And some cheap babysitting.

Look at me.

Now that my girl is grown,

I’m out here on my own.

Husband and daughter

Calling everywhere that’s not a home.

Stayin up late, shredding paper wastin ink/

Since u been.

Out there flipping later, I’ve been acting/

Neat & clean since u been.

Hotel letterhead can’t be cutting it/

Dry since u been.

Dipping your fingers, I’ve been tripping/

Since u been.

Cutting straws so you start to linger, banking hours/

Since u been.

Taking for granted you deplore it/

Neat & clean since u been.

Closing your eyes to hopes of staying/

Dry since u been.

Dipping your fingers, I’ve been tripping/

Since u been.

Stayin up late, shredding paper wastin ink/

Since u been.

Out there flipping later, I’ve been acting/

Neat & clean since u been.

Hotel letterhead can’t be cutting it/

Dry since u been.

Dipping your fingers, I’ve been tripping/

Since u been.

Cutting straws so you start to linger, banking hours/

Since u been.

Taking for granted you deplore it/

Neat & clean since u been.

Closing your eyes to hopes of staying/

Dry since u been.

Dipping your fingers, I’ve been tripping/

Since u been.

Stayin up late, shredding paper wastin ink/

Since u been.

Out there flipping later, I’ve been acting/

Neat & clean since u been.

Hotel letterhead can’t be cutting it/

Dry since u been.

Dipping your fingers, I’ve been tripping/

Since u been.

Cutting straws so you start to linger, banking hours/

Since u been.

Taking for granted you deplore it/

Neat & clean since u been.

Closing your eyes to hopes of staying/

Dry since u been.

Dipping your fingers, I’ve been tripping/

Since u been.
