This place is dragging me down
|
A hamster wheel, I thought I'd be done by now
|
Now that all my allies are gone
|
I realize advancing can hold you back
|
|
My good intentions just keep sliding by the wayside
|
But it's high tide and they get washed away with time
|
Until everything's gone, until everything's gone
|
|
All's fine along the Long Island Sound
|
But fine's polite I'd rather things more profound
|
I've become a rock these days and I swim like one
|
Alone again, barely surviving the tidal wave
|
|
My good intentions just keep sliding by the wayside
|
But it's high tide and they get washed away with time
|
Until everything's gone, until everything's gone
|
I swear, damn it all to hell, damn it all to hell
|
|
I think I finally found the way to go to heaven
|
Without dying, so I'm on my way
|
The harder you work, the harder you fall
|
You wake up one day with nothing at all
|
|
My good intentions just keep sliding by the wayside
|
But it's high tide and they get washed away with time
|
Until everything's gone, until everything's gone
|
Until everything's gone, until everything's gone
|
I swear, damn it all to hell
|
