i took a seat into your lap and followed you around
i saw you glaring at the train that took you into town
you mumble its okay, it's not your place 
it's not your burden to face
it's just the price i pay
there's no other way to say it,
and there's no other to pay it

she sells paper for a living
another day of placing pens
her eyes pace across a sunken place till she gets off at 10
just scraping up the rent

but when you come home in that shirt with the collar
all i can see is a million dollars
you swing your bag off of your shoulder and fill me in
on how your day went and how your cards are running thin

even if the stars aren't aligned this time, we'll turn our luck around
all i need is you in my arms and 
5 more minutes to sleep through our alarms
if you can't afford that dress you wanted
i'll rip the tag off and pretend i bought it
tripping up the stairs and hopping over the rails
leaving behind our paper trails

if you're dozing off, you better be okay with me coming with you
i'll take you to the future i've been dreaming of
holding your hair while you're throwing up and all of the above

(you're talking in your sleep you're hogging all the sheets again)
