Check Engine Light Lyrics

It always seems like there's a list of things I have to do

But I never have the energy to commit and follow through

Living for the moment, not thinking 'bout tomorrow

Only doing what I want on time I have to borrow

Oh why, oh why, do I

Get stuck inside my head

The only thing I'm good at

Is putting off my problems

No matter how easy

It is for me to solve them

And there's a check engine light

Lit up on my dashboard

It's a simple warning sign

One I'm choosing to ignore

But I keep driving

When I have a deadline my mind becomes so clouded

I try to distract myself so I don't have to think about it

More and more as time goes on I fall so far behind

I don't know what's happening that made me feel so blind

The only thing I'm good at

Is putting off my problems

No matter how easy

It is for me to solve them

When I have to send a message, when I have to make a phone call

When I have to fill out paperwork I freak out and start to stall

The only thing I'm good at

Is running from my problems

No matter how easy

It is for me to solve them

And there's a check engine light

Lit up on my dashboard

It's a simple warning sign

One I'm choosing to ignore

But I keep driving
