Lyrics
(This is the instrumental version; a version with vocals is also available, and these are the lyrics.)
The gears are turning, the smoke is billowing out my ears
Thinking overtime about overcoming fears
Step one: I've moved on, now Step two: let me turn the page
But the manual's en espanol, no hablo o comprende
I've been asleep about a million years
And now I'm listening through a million ears
I woke up from this sleep and the whole thing tumbled down
And now my head's in my hands, I'm not making a sound
Turning that frown upside down
Running away and skipping town
The day sure snuck up from behind
I mouth the lyrics and try to catch your eye
"No date for the prom, you say
Now I'm one of the hearts you'll break"
No match for two years vs. two days
Not believing another thing you say
In due time you're sleeping with the enemy
No match for two years vs. two days
Not believing another thing you say
In due time you're sleeping with the enemy
