checklist

Mark it on the checklist
I stepped outside today
The grass was pale
And the weather was okay
The aroma of the rain
Lasted for days
Now I wish I didn't wait

'Cause I drove on down to the corner store
The day was almost done
It was like 3:00 or 4:00
I murdered most my time
Sleeping through the morn'
But I got many more years
So no need to mourn

Bought a couple things
Box of onion rings
I was leaving out the store
Driving on the street
Then I took a wrong turn
Didn't look both ways
Now it's time to say
Goodbye to my days

I could've done it all
(But you took too long)
Progress I make is small
(No you're so damn wrong)
I wish I made the calls
(Let yourself live on)
I'm only getting older
Can't start after it's over

Mark it on the checklist
Successfully wasted my time
I look back now
And somehow then
I didn't seem to mind
I say I'll change it
Perpetuate it
I never face it
I'm losing life
And I can't go crying
'Cause I'd be lying
If I said the fault wasn't mine

Don't pause, don't pause
I'm not helping my cause
Hesitations got me in its jaws
And I'm jailed having to obey its laws

Don't pause, don't pause
It's more time that I've lost
Vacillations cut me with it's claws
Oh why am I so flawed?

I could've done it all
(But you took too long)
Progress I make is small
(No you're so damn wrong)
I wish I made the calls
(Let yourself live on)
I'm only getting older
Can't start after it's over

I could've done it all
(But you took too long)
Progress I make is small
(No you're so damn wrong)
I wish I made the calls
(Let yourself live on)
I'm only getting older
Can't start after it's over
