You can scrutinize my actions, you can break me into fractions,
|
you can walk away
|
You can polarize my friends, destroy the letters that
|
I send or you can run away
|
You can terrorize my neighbors with your Mr. Hyde behavior,
|
you can drink away
|
You can exorcise your demons, bite and scratch and kick and scream,
|
you can act away
|
And if you ever open your eyes, you won't find me standing in line
|
|
You can cauterize my feelings with your flaming tongue leave me reeling
|
you can talk away
|
You can compromise my passion, call me fake and call me fashion,
|
you can write away
|
You can rationalize a purchase with my money and say it's worth it
|
You can tear me up or tie me down and kick me on the ground
|
And if you ever open your eyes, you won't find me standing in line
|
Caroline, it's a waste of time
|
|
Don't you want me to come back Caroline?
|
Don't you want me to fly back Caroline?
|
|
You can scrutinize my actions, you can break me into fractions,
|
you can walk away
|
You can idolize your drum machine, say the Beatles suck and
|
dis the King and walk away
|
You can finalize the ending, break the rules that you've been bending
|
You can find a brand new lover, run away and then discover
|
You can't outrun your actions, you can't get no satisfaction
|
And if you ever open your eyes, you won't find me standing in line
|
|
Caroline, it's a waste of time
