It's Time For Drastic Measures They're Not Taking You Seriously

and when the music stops, all we have are words merely

so listen up, they're not taking you seriously

and i'd write the words, if i only knew what you needed

touch you in the heart... try and stop the bleeding

and all i want is for you to be ok

i'd give my life for you just say the word. and i'll write the words

and tell everyone our story. try and touch their hearts hope they don't ignore me

and all i want is for us to be ok i'll do anything for you just say the word

and i'll say the words, it's what i do it's not my choice

they touch me in my heart, i try and give em all a voice

and i don't want it if it's easy

i can't have it until i've really worked for it

because all you'll have is this idiot

but i'll write the words, and if you give me 5 minutes

i might break your heart... but we're just beginning

and all i want is for our you to be ok i'll do anything for you just say the words

and i'll spread the word as far as this body can reach

try and find their hearts, no matter how deep

and i'll die for you i love you all with all i am

i'll do anything for you just say the word

and when i've stopped believing

i hope you'll pick up all these pieces that i'm leaving

because you don't want me if i'm cutting all these corners

and when the music stops, all we have are words merely

so listen up, they're not taking you seriously

they don't respect you, it might be your managing style

if they neglect you, you might try not being kind

when no one likes you, it's time to start docking their pay

what if they hurt you, you might try filing a complaint

but remember sticks and stones, and stick those stones where you can use em again

make em bruise when you send that they'll lose in the end

when they feel your revenge. but right now's the time, and it's got to be drastic

trying to hold it all together with prayer and some plastic ties

no matter what the size. i try and try, and die

a little death every time i close my eyes, and resurrect and pass right by

another day, another chance another window

but they're not taking you seriously though

we're downsizing your accounts

we're all hoping things will bounce

we got to do what's right for the economy

we have to let you go, because we have no more money

and when the music stops, all we have are words merely

so listen up, they're not taking you seriously

you might try stalking the aisles

dragging your feet with a sinister smile

you'll know they respect you when they beg you for mercy

crying on their knees saying please don't hurt me

i have an suv and a family to feed

my house is very large you can have it for free

we have lots of money just grab what you need

just leave me my life you can take my dignity

you might consider their offer

just ponder for a while and look like your thinking

but then frown and say they're not worth it

and walk away and you'll feel like a king

they're not taking you seriously

your oblivious and can't feel shame

it must be how you carry yourself

your the only one to blame

so listen up
