Playing House

We can't keep playing houseWith such a big world outsideHow do we shut it out?At a fork in the roadShould I stay or should I go?I'll keep the catLeave a spare under the matIf you need to cash one dayCause I know we swore foreverBut it seems so far awayDon't you think we're just too youngTo play these grown up games?Cause you know me too wellIt'd be like me lying to myselfBut I'm so scared to be aloneAnd go back to sleeping with the lights onCause I can be myselfDrunk or sober fat proactive posterWouldn't it be niceIf we were olderCause I know we swore foreverBut it seems so far awayDon't you think we're just too youngTo play these grown up gamesSome days I wanna take my chancesNot live so modernizedSome day I wanna be a Mrs.But it's not yet quite rightNo it's not yet quite rightSo there go our future children's namesI put the rest of us in a box in the closetThat I cannot open without getting fullFull of emotionBecause you know I loved youYou know I loved youYou know I loved youYou know I loved youYou know I loved youCause I know we swore foreverBut it seems so far awayDon't you think we're just too youngTo playOne day I wanna take my chancesNot live so modernizedOne day I wanna be a Mrs.But it's not yet quite rightNo it's not yet quite rightNo it's not yet quite right
