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
