I've been waking in the early morning sun
I've been wishing already the day was done
'Cause they keep pushing and shoving
Like they did yesterday
They keep pushing and a-pushing and a-pushing me away
But I never cared too much about them anyway
I've been sitting on the carpet since the middle of the day
I've been shaking in the early morning rain
I've been burning my fingers trying to capture a flame
Cause they keep lying and hiding like they done throughout the years
They just turn off the lights and clog up my ears
But I never gotten caught up in their heartache and their tears
And I've never gotten cut up by their scissors and their shears
I've been waking up in last night's clothes
I've been writing a novel about all your woes
Cause you keep whining and rewinding like you do all the time
If you can't go back, just leave it all behind
So please excuse me if I act a bit unkind
But I can't stay back if I've got something to find
I've been waking in the early morning sun
I've been wishing already the day was done
'Cause they keep pushing and shoving
Like they did yesterday
They keep pushing and a-pushing and a-pushing me away
But I never cared too much about them anyway
I've been sitting on the carpet since the middle of the day
