Standing back before the angels get to me,
Well it seems such a sorry waste of time.
Holding back on those who want the best for me.
I guess I cant be blamed for trying.

Its really very funny how it wears me down,
Waiting for that something.

Hey you, well Im sorry but its time to let you know.
Hey you, and it sounds a bit like preaching.
Id bend over backwards to let you know.

Rolling back around the numbers on the wall,
Well its sad cause I dont have much to show.
Standing back before the angels get to me,
Well it seems the better way to go.
