Divorce In A Small Town Lyrics

There's nowhere to go
Where the people you know
Don't know about it
School drop-off line
Is it your turn or mine?
We dance around it

Now our collateral damage is public knowledge
It was my private wound for years
I got to a place where staying wasn't honest

Nobody wants to get divorced in a small town
You think you got a broken heart? Break it to your kids
Lost our home and half our friends in the fallout
Nobody wants to get divorced in a small town
Nobody wants to get divorced in a small town

In the big city life
I could hide in the lights
And fake a few smiles
But there's only one church
And I run into your mom
In the grocery store aisle
I can't live in denial

I heard you went on your first first date
To that Mexican place two towns away
My therapist says not to take the bait

Nobody wants to get divorced in a small town
You think you got a broken heart? Break it to your kids
Lost our home and half our friends in the fallout
Nobody wants to get divorced in a small town
Nobody wants to get divorced in a small town

Our youngest is still holding out for our forever
Trying to make impossible pieces fit
How do you say we're never getting back together?

Nobody wants to get divorced in a small town
You think you got a broken heart? Break it to your kids
Lost our home and half our friends in the fallout
Nobody wants to get divorced in a small town
Thought we would both be better off, I don't know now
Nobody wants to get divorced in a small town

Oh
