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
