Underwired

something tells me, or maybe it’s my head
been holding on the rails too damned tight
once in a while you’ve got to chance it to the wind
trust everything will be alright

you’ve got ahead.. but
citicide has got your nature down
listened to what you said
think maybe i won’t come around

‘cause i’m underwired
can’t take your ego trip any more
underwired, i am just too tired
why don’t you go and..
find someone stronger

see you dancing to a nameless tune
but you’re not listening to the words
know the chorus and you belt it like your anthem
forget about trying to sing the verse

and when the night
has spent your breakfast and your damaged head
do you feel it was worth it
or are you left like me?

‘cause i’m underwired
can’t take your ego trip any more
underwired, i am not inspired
why don’t you go and..
find someone stronger

so when did i get left holding the bill?
you’ve maxed your credit card, and thrown it all away
call this a parting gift, one more for old time’s sake
but i’ll be moving on, going away
.. moving on today
