lyrics

Pieces not fitting, nothing sticking, can’t you hear the clock ticking?
Kids are sassing, storms amassing, don’t you just feel the time passing?
I know you have places to go, why are you going so, so slow?
Are there some fires to put out, why then should you scream and shout.

[PRECHORUS]
Ranting, raving, now why are you misbehaving?
Burning, crashing, at least we all still look so smashing.

[CHORUS]
You designed this situation with your endemic impatience.
Now you think I’ve got the fix somewhere in this bag of tricks.
You absolve yourself of guilt for the house of cards you’ve built.
You won’t get away with that.

Constant straining, but no gaining, can’t you just sense the day waning?
Fabric rending, something’s pending, soon enough things will be ending.
So many places that you’ve been, all of this could have been foreseen.
Now your life’s not full of clover, you’re asking for a do-over.

[REPEAT PRECHORUS & CHORUS]

Now you say you’re afraid no one’s coming to your aid.
So you shout and you spout that you need a way out.
Now you hope as you grope at the end of your rope.
But don’t pray as you sway, no one’s going to save the day.

[REPEAT CHORUS]
