Lyrics
The Company Dime
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I watched it all come crashing down
On the verge of a world profound.
Standing on unstable ground
Adding insult to irony.
I think its really gonna happen this time,
Our calls on the company dime.
Reluctance ties up the line
With irresponsibility.
No matter save for a friend
No argument can amend.
Irreplaceable but in the end,
One star player doesnt save the team.
Now youre open to attack,
Our burden rests on your back.
Replace, re-track
Responsibility.
Im still waiting for
(Im still waiting for )
You to get over this.
Still waiting for
(Im still waiting for )
You to get over this.
Still waiting for
(Im still waiting for )
You to get over this.
Anonymous until the ending,
Spent a long long time pretending.
And a longer day spent accepting
What the world ahead would store.
You only learn but not believing
That the industry is unforgiving.
Everything that youve been giving
Isnt what it was before.
Im still waiting for
(Im still waiting for )
You to get over this.
Still waiting for
(Im still waiting for )
You to get over this.
Still waiting for
(Im still waiting for )
You to get over this.
Replace, re-track
Replace, re-track
Replace, re-track
Im still waiting for
(Im still waiting for )
You to get over this.
Still waiting for
(Im still waiting for )
You to get over this.
Still waiting for
(Im still waiting for )
You to get over this.
