Treating your days like a countdown

Seconds pass by, waiting just to blow up

And you get nothing done

And this is what you want

Lost touch and

You turn your back and your some friend

Sterile conversation

Learn to talk a good game

Talk your way out

It's a sure thing

Testing the ends of what they'll put up with

You got your chance to say what you wanted to

But you never do

Stand up to the ones that keep you down

Now you can see right through it all

Lost touch and

Tracing your steps you can't begin

You can't start

To say what you're thinking and why not

Talk your way out

It's a sure thing

Testing the ends of what they'll put up with

Sticking it out 'til you can't get up

How many times have you been pacified?

Accepting it when you're told

There's no way

Making sure there never will

Sticking it out 'til you can't get up

How many times have you been pacified?

Accepting it when you're told

There's no way

Making sure there never will

Testing the ends of what they'll put up with
