lyrics

Lyrics:

Toe the line
Don't fall behind
I've got no time
For second tries

Set it high
Don't let it slide
I've got no time
To run and hide

Hold me close
Don't let me go
I've got no time
To make a show

Don't you know
From here below
I've got no time
To hit the road

But oh,
Let me know when it's time to go
And I'll leave
Let me know when its's time to go
'Cause I've been waiting here for years

Speak your mind
Through tear stained eyes
I've got no time
For pretty white lies

Toe the line
Don't fall behind
I've got no time
For second tries

But oh,
Let me know when it's time to go
And I'll leave
Let me know when its's time to go
'Cause I've been waiting here for years

You're hopeless as a forest fire
In the pouring summer rain
You're hopeless in the wait for dawn
At the end of every day
You're waiting for the sun to rise
With no plan for when it comes
You're hoping that the daylight breaks
Before you come unstuck
You're hoping that the daylight breaks
Before you come unstuck
