Power Invested in Us by Jacob Maxwell Lyrics

When we're young, to listen to what's been told is
Seen as a trap by those that've gotten old
Ooohh, ooohh

Meet me at the church, I've got our rings I can
Promise you, at least in this moment, this is eternity
Ooohh, ooohh

And everyone said don't get married
You know you don't get along
We'll be in our graves before we're buried
You told me to write you a song

Walk with me to that old house
The one we swore would be ours
The way the light hits your green eyes
I quickly learned it'd be okay to die
Let's just lie

Now we've grown, stiffened by the world
Our younger selves have gotten bored
Oooh, oooh
The light grows dim in this dusty house
The kids are running around the yard
But I feel alone
Oooh, oooh

And everyone said don't get married
You know you don't get along
We'll be in our graves before we're buried
You told me to write you a song

Love, sweat and tears I've poured into this
But somehow everything I do just doesn't stick
Money, pain and time I'm scratching the skin of it
But now is not a good time to say goodbye is it?

Walk with me to that old house
The one we swore would be ours
The way the light hits your green eyes
I quickly learned it'd be okay to die
Let's just lie
Let's just lie
Let's just lie...
