Ten Years of This

You'd never know by looking
We were ever more than strangers
But, we're celebrating ten years
Of wedded bliss

She made the rounds as usual
While I sit here stoned as usual
Lord, I can't believe we survived
Ten years of this

Ten years together
A million nights alone
Whose mistake is it?
What do we blame it on?

If someone else would tell me
What I already know in my mind
I'm afraid I'd start talking
With my fists

But, I know.. I'm lying
What ain't dead, by now is dying
What in hell kept us together
For ten years of this?

Ten years together
A million nights alone
Whose mistake is it?
What do we blame it on?

Maybe you started cheating
Because you married so young
Whatever it is, I can't go on

I know, I can't take it
Too long, I've had to fake it
I just don't think we can make it

Through ten more years of this...
