lyrics

When I woke up, I was standing at the office
The second hand on the clock refused to spin
Three hours down, and that left far too many left to go
I tried not to think, tried not to cave right in

At three o'clock in the morning, I watched my breathing
Back to the mattress, one foot on the floor
And somewhere in all of this, I thought of the curve along your shoulders
And found I couldn't breathe as I had before

In my notebook there's a stack of unmailed letters
On my desk there's a pile of unpaid bills
When we first met, I hoped the world would move in my direction
Now I'd give all that I have to keep it still

I can't blame you, I can't blame your decisions
As much as I would like to some of the time
I'm just weighing the pros and cons of getting down on bended knee
To beg for something that was never mine

I don't have it in me to wage a holy war
But I'm losing the strength to keep it all inside
So I'll just say that some of us bridesmaids
Are getting tired of never being the bride
