if we were a story

If we were a story I'd follow your inner script I won't interrupt you and your monologue when You talk about wanting a house with a goat, screaming "F*ck the patriarchy - we're better off alone" If you were a writer I'd act in your play And I'd try not to crack up when we slip up on stage Reassure that no one notices when you mess up a line I bet you haven't noticed that I mess it up all the time If we were a story I'd follow your inner script And it wouldn't matter that nobody else would get it You'd say look at the flowers, how they face towards the sun In the morning they'd wake up and put on their makeup And close when the day is all done In the morning they'd wake up and put on their makeup And close when the day is all done
