Keepin Up

Keepin Up

Keepin up and pushin on

Hang on for the ride and some fun

But in your heart

You know he isn’t the one

Won’t let him go

Always reachin for a hand to hold

Keep changing who you are

To hopefully finally fit in the mold

Each step you move ahead

And every decision you make

Just another on a long list

Of intentional mistakes

You take the ring

You wear the dress

You take his name

And your lifes already a mess

You have his baby

And add one more

Each day waiting

For him to show you the door

You sing while you fold

And smile while you sweep

Makin him lunch

And cryin in your sleep

You want an escape

But don’t want to leave

An unhealthy attachment

To a man you can’t keep

One day it’ll come

Crashing down

But you’ll feign happiness

At least for now
