Lyrics

On a hill overlooking the town
We spent ten years looking down
Built a home, and let it fall to the ground
No love left inside

On the floor laid with our four hands
Stands the latest of your one-night stands
Remind her to water my plants
And keep them satisfied

After all of the ink has dried
After all of the tears are cried
After you undo the knot we tied
I hope you’re satisfied

I know the kids don’t want to be
In this cramped, damp apartment with me
They miss their friends and their cable TV
To keep them occupied

They say they’re really angry with you
Given time, they’ll likely hate me too
But there’s only so much I can do
To make them satisfied

After all of the ink has dried
After all of my tears have been cried
After you undo the knot we tied
I hope you’re satisfied

Divide all the times that we shared
Subtract acting like you cared
Add a dash of life’s not fair
Our troubles multiplied

No matter how we do the math
You always get the better half
I’d never seen our lawyer laugh
Instantly gratified

After all of the ink has dried
After all of the tears I cried
After you undo the knot we tied
I hope you’re satisfied

At the end of the day I can say I tried
To keep you satisfied
