Guest Room

GENRE Come home twice a week
I say "We should go out and have something to drink"
"Don't you think? There's something going on"
I say "We should talk to someone"
But you'll never admit
That you're wrong
There's something going on
A light shows up on your phone
You say "It means nothing" my hart starts thumping
I know
I'm not quite ready to let go
Had a dream other night
There's a shadow in the light
Right beside you
Now I'm in the guest room
What am I to do?
I'm feeling like a fool to you
You're a scarlet letter
So speak now or forever
Honey please, on my knees
We got a case of infidelity
My vulnerability's killing me
He's spending every night
Take the subway around my Washington Heights
I don't think there's anything going on
We're thinking about getting a place
On Upper West near Morningside
We'll be a big happy family
But his daughter doesn't know
I said, "What other secrets are you keeping?"
He said, "You're so delusional"
Another story another lie
And he doesn't bat an eye
Right beside you
Now I'm in the guest room
What am I to do?
I'm feeling like a fool to you
You're a scarlet letter
So speak now or forever
Honey please, on my knees
We got a case of infidelity
My vulnerability's killing me
All we wanted was a little reassurance
And all we got are some fancy things and a bridge now burning
Bridge now burning, bridge now burning
What am I to do?
I'm feeling like a fool to you
You're a scarlet letter
So speak now or forever
Honey please, on my knees
We got a case of infidelity
My vulnerability's killing me
Now I'm in the guest room
I say "We should go out and have something to drink"
"Don't you think? There's something going on"
I say "We should talk to someone"
