I wish I could pretend
That this was worth our time
But I'm sick of hearing
All of your rehearsed lines
Just like a dog tied up
Outside in the back yard
You can bark all you want
You're not getting far
Stop dropping names
And playing games
I'm working harder everyday
Just to try and clean up the mess that you made
Open the ears that have stayed closed for years
Not with wax but with ignorance
There's nothing you can say
No deal that you can make
So close and yet so far (we were not naive)
I don't know who you are (but you don't know me)
I'm working harder everyday
Just to try and clean up the mess that you made
Open the ears that have stayed closed for years
Not with wax but with ignorance
Like a rat in a maze, you will chew your way
Out of every dead end
I'm so sick and tired, of trying to
Keep my head above water
(Why do you keep testing me, you keep on pushing but I'm-)
I'm working harder everyday
Just to try and clean up the mess that you made
Open the ears that have stayed closed for years
