Playing House
Bed all aglow, 5AM light
Sheets turn blue-gray, close our eyes
Told me you loved me, but the music was so loud
You're embarrassed in the morning I can't figure you out
Tangled in your arms sinking into your breathing
Fingers in your hair trying to feel if you need me
We're on the same page but a paragraph apart
You rely on reason while I'm speaking from the heart
Oh we're just playing house
The walls are falling down
Half-life pictures yeah we're fading now
Like my number on your hand
Or the stain on your sweater
I still wait for you to love me better
Take love when you give love but not for show
Live in a lockbox of loose ends, it's all we know
Turning tiny gestures into stories I can tell
When you don't meet the minimum; a consolation to myself
Tangled in your arms sinking into your breathing
Fingers in your hair trying to feel if you need me
We're on the same page but a paragraph apart
You rely on reason while I'm speaking from the heart
Oh we're just playing house
The walls are falling down
Half-life pictures yeah we're fading now
Like my number on your hand
Or the stain on your sweater
I still wait for you to love me better
Oh we're just playing house
The walls are falling down
Half-life pictures yeah we're fading now
Like my number on your hand
Or the stain on your sweater
I still wait for you to love me better
Second chances turn to third and fourth
Can't loving me be easy? Don't want you to force it
If I want you bad enough I'll barely feel it hurt
Wait for you to catch up and hope we'll make it work
Oh we're just playing house
The walls are falling down
Half-life pictures yeah we're fading now
Oh we're just playing house
The walls are falling down
Half-life pictures yeah we're fading now
Like my number on your hand
Or the stain on your sweater
I still wait for you to love me better
Oh we're just playing house
The walls are falling down
Half-life pictures yeah we're fading now
Like my number on your hand
Or the stain on your sweater
I still wait for you to love me better
Sheets turn blue-gray, close our eyes
Told me you loved me, but the music was so loud
You're embarrassed in the morning I can't figure you out
Tangled in your arms sinking into your breathing
Fingers in your hair trying to feel if you need me
We're on the same page but a paragraph apart
You rely on reason while I'm speaking from the heart
Oh we're just playing house
The walls are falling down
Half-life pictures yeah we're fading now
Like my number on your hand
Or the stain on your sweater
I still wait for you to love me better
Take love when you give love but not for show
Live in a lockbox of loose ends, it's all we know
Turning tiny gestures into stories I can tell
When you don't meet the minimum; a consolation to myself
Tangled in your arms sinking into your breathing
Fingers in your hair trying to feel if you need me
We're on the same page but a paragraph apart
You rely on reason while I'm speaking from the heart
Oh we're just playing house
The walls are falling down
Half-life pictures yeah we're fading now
Like my number on your hand
Or the stain on your sweater
I still wait for you to love me better
Oh we're just playing house
The walls are falling down
Half-life pictures yeah we're fading now
Like my number on your hand
Or the stain on your sweater
I still wait for you to love me better
Second chances turn to third and fourth
Can't loving me be easy? Don't want you to force it
If I want you bad enough I'll barely feel it hurt
Wait for you to catch up and hope we'll make it work
Oh we're just playing house
The walls are falling down
Half-life pictures yeah we're fading now
Oh we're just playing house
The walls are falling down
Half-life pictures yeah we're fading now
Like my number on your hand
Or the stain on your sweater
I still wait for you to love me better
Oh we're just playing house
The walls are falling down
Half-life pictures yeah we're fading now
Like my number on your hand
Or the stain on your sweater
I still wait for you to love me better
