Lyrics
Listening quiet, patient and pliant
Listening quietly, patiently, and being adaptable
Ever the model muse
Being the ideal inspiration for creative work
Letting a few things slide
Tolerating or overlooking certain things
And I dare not dare
Avoiding taking risks or challenges
Question a motive, raise an objection
Questioning motives, raising objections, or expressing dissatisfaction
Or burn down a shortened fuse
Reacting strongly or explosively to a short fuse
Until now, that's enough
So far, the previous behavior has been acceptable
That's your problem and it's not fair
Acknowledging a problem, but considering it unfair
It's like you've got the whole world right in front of you
Feeling like the entire world is within reach
And you're waiting for something, hoping that you'll survive
Waiting for something, anticipating survival
Won't stop you now 'cause you're on a roll
Not letting obstacles hinder progress
It might be something to turn your attention to
Suggesting a potential focus or solution
Something that's missing, right there before your eyes
Noticing something missing despite being in plain sight
Got by your quality control
Overcoming challenges through quality control
Justifications galore and the start of a seemingly endless ruse
Providing numerous justifications and starting a deceptive strategy
Put yourself on the stand or better still beware
Putting oneself in a vulnerable position or being cautious
Banter and blame and they're chanting your name in a litany of bad news
Facing criticism and negative attention
Amazed by the rhythm and gait of your bitter prayer
Being impressed by the pattern and pace of a bitter prayer
It's like you've got the whole world right in front of you
Feeling like the entire world is within reach (repeated)
And you're waiting for something, hoping that you'll survive
Waiting for something, anticipating survival (repeated)
Won't stop you now 'cause you're on a roll
Not letting obstacles hinder progress (repeated)
It might be something to turn your attention to
Suggesting a potential focus or solution (repeated)
Something that's missing, right there before your eyes
Noticing something missing despite being in plain sight (repeated)
Got by your quality control
Overcoming challenges through quality control (repeated)
