[Verse]
Umbrellas up, rain’s comin
I see the clouds gather above
I’m searching for the right words
But for me, that’s like tryna catch smoke
Like violence or violets, I know they both lead me to choke
My bad habits take over, and that’s all I know in my heart
[Hook]
I come when you call
I do what I’m told
You profit, I work
It’s so corporate and cold
The union’s a mess, I should be movin on
What good is a roof if it leaks in a storm?
It takes a lot to upset me
And I don’t hold much of a grudge
Far be it from me to police what you want
But it’s cruel to let boredom look so much like love
[Verse]
I walk into your headlights
Like moth and flame I know where to fly
Always telling myself things I didn’t buy
False salvation’s the worst lie
Excuses are cheap
But I’m paying the cost
You get what you want but you give nothing up
You’re still the noose but the shackles are off
Cut me loose babe I’ve had enough
[Hook]
I come when you call
I do what I’m told
You profit, I work
It’s so corporate and cold
The union’s a mess, I should be movin on
What good is a roof if it leaks in a storm?
It takes a lot to upset me
And i don’t hold much of a grudge
Far be it from me to police what you want
But it’s cruel to let boredom look so much like love
