Verse 1
This place is dragging me down
A hamster wheel I thought
I'd be done by now
Now that all my
allies are gone
I realize advancing
could hold you back
Chorus 1
My good intentions just keep
sliding by the wayside
But it's high tide and they
get washed away with time
Until everything's gone
until everything's gone
Post Chorus: x2
Verse 2
I was flying along the
Long Island sound
But fine's polite I'd
rather things more profound
I've become a rock these
days and I swim like one
Alone again barely
surviving the tidal wave
Chorus 2
My good intentions just keep
sliding by the wayside
But it's high tide and they
get washed away with time
Until everything's gone
until everything's gone
I swear damn it all to hell
damn it all to hell
Bridge
I think I finally found
the way to go to heaven
Without dying
so I'm on my way
(I'm on my way)
The harder you work
the harder you fall
You wake up one day
with nothing at all
Verse 3
oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
oh oh oh oh oh oh
oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
oh oh oh oh oh oh

Chorus 3
My good intentions just keep
sliding by the wayside
But it's high tide and they
get washed away with time
Until everything's gone
until everything's gone
Until everything's gone
until everything's gone
I swear damn it all to hell
