I'm Not Celebrating

I'm not celebrating this newfound separation just because
You sleep there and I sleep where
The vinyl and the wine will keep me company
No fuss

Lately I've been itching to get picking at the stitches
Loose in us
But every time it seems that I
So much as try and open up my mouth
It simply shuts

But maybe we could take some time
Just you and I
In the early afternoon
Please don't say a word
It's much too soon
Just lie here bathed in natural light
Until the rising of the Moon
Savoring the moment

Well, the thing I find frustrating
Is this newfound desperation off the cuff
One minute we're here holding hands
The next we're taking stands on new demands
And cursing everything we loved

And I once was full of hope
But as I'm running out of rope
It starts to dawn
I can't be your enemy when the truth of me
Is that any will to fight
Is long since gone

Oh, but maybe we could take some time
Just you and I
In the early afternoon
Please don't say a word
It's much too soon
Just lie here bathed in natural light
Until the rising of the Moon
Savoring the moment
