What Happened

What Happened

Heard the front door slam 
Lying in my bed 'bout 8 AM 
She packed her bags and hit the road 
Don't know if she'll be back again 
I guess she's had enough 
Well finally we can agree 
Besides the bills, all we share these days is misery 
She used to be my better half 
Now she's the thorn stuck in my side 
Our love is a burden we both bear 
These vows are the chains we hide 

I don't know where it all went wrong 
What happened to our happy home 

What happened to forever 
What happened to for worse or better 
What happened to our plans 
What happened to the ring on her hand 
What happened to our love 
What happened, oh, to us 

This past month's been hell 
With gnashing teeth and brimstone fire 
Furious flames have filled the rooms 
Of this little house of ours 
We've said a lot of things 
That cut eachother to the core 
She said "you're no good 
just like your daddy, that don't love you anymore" 
And now I'm drinking way too much 
But these days, it's all that gets me through 
And sometimes I feel like this whiskey bottle 
Is the one I'm married to 

Oh and we've been going to church 
Still it feels like things keep getting worse 
Lord help us 

What happened to forever 
What happened to for worse or better 
What happened to our plans 
What happened to the ring on her hand 
What happened to our love 
What happened, oh, to us 

She came home late last night 
With tear-stained rings around her eyes 
And she said "this isn't how it's supposed to be" 
Then she cried "what happened to you and me?" 

What happened to surprises 
What happened to the compromises 
What happened to the romance 
What happened to holding my hand 
What happened to our love 
What happened, oh, to us 

What happened to forever 
What happened to for worse or better 
What happened to our plans 
What happened to the ring on her hand 
What happened, what happened, what happened... 
What happened to us...
