In Separate Rooms

Have you been ashamed of yourselves
I've been disappointed in you
Worried smiles and well-rehearsed dinners
There's been no laughter
Without red eyes
Blue at home

And while
You've been supportive
I just realized what's become daily
Isn't normal

Is this what life becomes
When we marry
The bottle

'Cause what we've done
In our separate rooms
For the past three years
Isn't living at all

Hold more regard
For the movies
Than I hold for our lives
Together right now

Have you thought about being yourselves
I've considered being you
Silent car rides
Routine goodnights
It's surprising that we've come so far like this
And while
You've been supportive
Your ability to keep problems quiet
Keeps me from supporting you

Is this what life becomes
When we marry
The bottle

'Cause what we've done
In our separate rooms
For the past three years
Isn't living at all

Hold more regard
For the movies
Hold more regard
For the movies
Hold more regard
For the movies
Than I hold for our lives
Together right now
