lyrics

I feel a little nervous being here
but I don’t care how they think about me dear
I can stand way back
and see the whole world clear

stuck on red
stuck on coming here
totally stuck on seeing her
pass me on the sidewalk coming near
losing speed to forget all fear

change your way
how long can you stay content
on a diet of circumstance

well, we’re caught in a fire
yet again
how much time will it take to burn
and when

change your way
how long can you stay?
well, we’re caught in the rain
yet again
how much time will it take to fall
and when

the present is a speed demon
I miss it all, I tried to prepare
spent way too long
waiting now to pass another day

honesty has asked me to play
limitless outs, that’s what’s wrong
try to keep the fall-backs at bay
and honestly you ought to know by know

I’m not sure I feel that way it sounds
yet again I’m only messing around
as I do this room becomes a home
being here keeps my memory down
