lyrics

Of course, another Saturday
running in my sleep
and I wonder why it's only noon
and I'm planning out next week

Why can't I just quit running
to kiss the ring
Why don't I just punch in and
go back to sleep

Consequently, out of town,
things have gotten to be
much quieter than expected now
and I take it personally

Why can't I just quit running
to kiss the ring
Why don't I just punch in and
go back to sleep

Why can't what's gone stay gone
and just stop pretending
We've talked about this, wondering
what it all means

Cause is better to relieve a grievance
Because it's better to relieve the pressure

Can't I just quit running
to kiss the ring
Why don't I just punch in and
go back to sleep

Why can't what's gone stay gone
and just stop pretending
We've talked about this, wondering
what it all means

It comes back to belief
and the way to relief
and the way that you believe is way out
