2. I've kept my mouth closed for too long, but this morning everything changed
spazzin' at home, havin' panic attacks & pacin' the hall
scattered moments of happiness captured & framed on the wall
these flashes of peace are just fables extracted from time
whereas the truth remains buried deep in the back of my mind
you'd see the dream but what you had, i couldn't imagine it
still i went on the ride down this path leading to wrath & avarice
in life you'd hoped for a future bright & intense
but too many nights spent on cliches like kids & a white picket fence
so when it's all said & done what's sad is it might've been better
if we'd never even done this cuz we haven't had a happy life together
'razor tongue'-laden speech, but what we say is only lies
we both work six days a week but it seems like nobody provides
this reality check's post-dated, should've canceled it sooner
damn it's become obvious we've evolved into a cancerous tumour
so as i ask for this divorce i know it does not trouble you
cuz you've been waiting for me to say it since the day i stopped loving you
