Don't fight this monster Let it attach itself to you I said I don't need the trouble And you don't need it too I got in right off distraught Said I don't remember but I forgot I don't wanna fight you till I do The sweetest devil still looks rotten Comfortable can feel so haunted I'm not after what you've got to Prove I'm not hiding, I'm not brooding But I never thought I'd lose my footing I can't stay, I know but I can't move Don't keep me under the eaves I feel the storm moving closer marks another defeat Trip down paths that you paved me just to keep off the streets I never wanted to plead free will at ease We can listen to clock hands Keeps us racing for bus stops Talk about lack of time We can ignore each other once I'm home at last Playing possum playing pacifist Came to kill the perfect time Don't keep me under the eaves I feel the storm moving closer, marks another defeat Trip down paths that you paved me just to keep off the streets I never wanted to plead free will at ease Easy streets walk c'est la vie I put my hands in my pockets and I'm ready to leave Come and look a little closer while I try not to freeze I never wanted to plead free will at ease I never wanted to plead free will at ease I never wanted to plead free will at ease
