INTHEWAY! Lyrics

It's supposed to be that the way you feel shouldn't always get in the way, every day

Given most of me has been waiting still for the right time to get away, any day

In 1998, I came to earth. In 2108, I'll be in dirt

Between that time, I'm probably getting burned and churned and twisted up and cursed and worse

So please, big boss, could I get a little raise

Cause it's been about a year and I haven't been a pain

I've been a tiny little itty bitty piece of the puzzle

Keepin' it bottled up inaudible and causing no trouble

I come and I go, quiet on the tip of my toes

A dog in a cone, so would you care to throw me a bone

I'm old reliable, solid like a Nokia phone

I guess I'll break my back while you get old in Boca Raton

So would you please excuse my late reply

But I don't think you're bothered

Cause I find it tough for me to bluff

And all for barely making a dollar

It's supposed to be that the way you feel

shouldn't always get in the way every day

Given most of me has been waiting

still for the right time to get away, any day

Gonna go carry it on

But I'm owning that all that I'm good for is to

Float around and not get it right

And I'm giving it all that I got

But the minute it feels like a lot

I feel overwhelmed and kept up at night

So please, little brain, could you pencil in a pause

I've been up and at 'em daily, trying to give myself a cause

And I'm finding I can barely keep on top of it the opposite of Other everybodies with the competence and confidence

A lot of this could be cause I've been living all autonomous

And lack of interaction means that I could die anonymous

On top of this, the words you're shoving into my esophagus

Are hard to miss and latches on the core beliefs I'm locking in

So who am I

I don't know

It's hard to tell

When days, they come and go

Will life pass me by

I can't tell you why

It feels harder and harder to try

It's supposed to be that the way you feel

Shouldn't always get in the way

Every day, given most of me has been waiting still

For the right time to get away any day

It's supposed to be that the way you feel

Shouldn't always get in the way every day

Given most of me has been waiting still for the right time to get away

Any day, any day
