monday
|
this is what you're up against
|
your head rings to the rhythm of the alarm
|
clock time in breathe in time out breathe out
|
i doubt that this is what you're all about
|
tuesday
|
this is what you're up against
|
the television and your version of aversion
|
the car the candy and the shower curtain
|
blurting out the answers
|
you didn't even ask for
|
but it's bound to get better
|
it better
|
slow motion replay
|
day in day out
|
we came all this way now
|
we'll fire up just to push them down
|
hello
|
human, we've got a little problem here
|
us babies need to back up to the base or
|
do you want to fake it
|
kiss it just to taste it
|
a door in the face or
|
a face on the floor
|
well
|
tonight
|
this is what i'm up against
|
five drinks and a season of surrendering
|
come out come out we all give up
|
got too tough and enough is enough
|
wait i can see
|
our selves set free
|
the sound and the string and
|
you and me
|
slow motion replay
|
day in day out
|
we all came this way now
|
we'll fire up just to push them down
|
i can't wait to see you wait
|
wait i can see
|
our selves set free
|
the simmering sea and
|
you and me
|
