I can't relax and act like everything's just fine
If I talk back just not I'm not trying to be unkind
'Cause there's a deadline for me and there's a deadline for you
and it's coming for us all without a second to lose
And I won't let it slide this time
I like what you've done to the place it looks oh so nice
But I can't take my eyes off of everything else outside
All this sitting around it really gets in my head
Behind this tasteful veneer I know it's all lined with lead
I'm so sorry if I seem distracted
With wheels in motion there's no turning back
Now it's full steam ahead and we're running out of track
'Cause eveyone wants peace of mind
But it's getting harder all the time
There's really no too small a change
When we all know what's coming
Everyone wants peace of mind
But the gears are turning all the time
Are you really gonna look away?
When we all know what's coming
I hate to ask but could you take a seat over there
It's only that it seems to us that you just don't care
And yeah we hear what you say but what you're saying is wrong
And yeah we'll have your debate just after our work is done
But until then we're kind of busy
With wheels in motion there's no turning back
Now it's full steam ahead and we're running out of track
But if I reach out with both my hands
Take two steps back it all keeps coming
Dig my heels as hard as I can
No matter what I want it all keeps coming
No we're living by the second hand
There's not time for second guessing
'Cause eveyone wants peace of mind
But it's getting harder all the time
There's really no too small a change
When we all know what's coming
Everyone wants peace of mind
But the gears are turning all the time
Are you really gonna look away?
When we all know what's coming
