The Laundry Pile

The laundry pile has been stackin’ up for miles

And I’ll walk ten more just to avoid it

Half dirty and half clean

Yeah it’s one hell of a thing

To feel like you’re one basket from losing your mind

The lie that I continue to tell myself

Is that I’ll take care of it today

Contemplate for a little while, oh hell

Might even crack a smile

But that shit ain’t getting put away

The sad news has been coming on for years

And I thought that I’d do anything just to avoid it

Well we’re half in love and half out

Yeah there just ain’t no damn doubt

That this love might be too far gone to save

The lie that I continue to tell myself

Is that you’ll be coming home to stay

Contemplate for a little while, oh hell

Might even crack a smile

But you’re not coming home either way

No you’re not coming home either way

No you’re not coming home either way
