back to my creator
I know it appears to be worn and faded
but its hardly ever been used
I skipped a lot of lessons
the landscape passed me over
I feared a lot of wasted time
I need a result again
my mind has got to take shelter
from the hell coming down
the warning signs, the warning signs
No ulterior motives
and no outside interference
order in the morning, we're quite disciplined at night
so keep me here
it seems I've tipped the balance
and wired out of sequence
there's smoke coming from the motor
like the whole things gonna blow
so don't you go yet
I need a result again
my mind has got to take shelter
from the hell coming down
the warning signs, the warning signs
I'll swim in the freezing sea
while my friends still pass me
like my list of every simple truth that I have learned
and if I can make you happy
the favour will be instantly returned
I need a result again
my mind has got to take shelter
from the hell coming down
the warning signs, the warning signs
