(I don’t think) marriage is a scam

None of your friends believe in getting married
They don’t feel the weight all of those words carry
‘Cause across from the fire I’m mourning the very
loss of the vows we planned & miscarried

Up in the mountains beneath shooting stars
They’re all doing drugs while we lay on the car
You look everywhere except my broken heart
‘Cause it’s too much a hassle to ravel up yarn

I wait for you to ask if I’m doing alright
I’m counting on clocks that don’t have the time
Drowning for people who won’t take the dive
Who fall apart and tell me everything is fine

And I say I need air, but we’re already outside
Let’s join the others even though I just cried.
Another meteor lights up our tiny eyes
Silently I wish that you’ll change your mind
