Clockwatching

Seems like the little things are slowly bringing you down
Pushing past your limits,
I can see you reaching meltdown
Howd you flip into a habit of aching for anybody's praise
Whyd you want to take it on and hear what a stranger has to say
Put them back in the backseat
Your dues have long been paid
Too many times, too many times, too many times
Put them back in the backseat
Your dues have long been paid
Too many times, too many times, too many times
Put them back in the backseat
Your dues have long been paid
Too many times, too many times, too many times
Put them back in the backseat
Your dues have long been paid
Too many times, too many times, too many times
Seems to me you pushed through and forgot the fact you need to feed your soul
That you cant hear the words you said to me so many times before
That you pulled me out of black holes, helped me level and carry on my own
Hadnt thought it true of you do as
I say not
I have done
Put them back in the backseat
Your dues have long been paid
Too many times, too many times, too many times
Put them back in the backseat
Your dues have long been paid
Too many times, too many times, too many times
Put them back in the backseat
Your dues have long been paid
Too many times, too many times, too many times
Put them back in the backseat
Your dues have long been paid
Too many times, too many times, too many times
Did you take it on the chin
Did you bite your tongue hard
Did you hold back when
You weremeant to dive in
Did you think it a waste of time
Lie and say its all just fine
Did you keep it to yourself
And turn a blind eye to help
Tell me when you lost your heart
Gave up said its too hard
Lost your place and get replaced
Were you shunted back into line
When did you loose your trust in us
In the people that do love
You just the way you are
Now rise up boy you fell too fat
Put them back in the backseat
Your dues have long been paid
Too many times, too many times, too many times
Put them back in the backseat
Your dues have long been paid
Too many times, too many times, too many times...
