John Reuben Nuisance
So here we are in this same old spot
Knowing something needs to happen but our mouths are locked
Tongue tied, closed tight, sealed shut, yup
I tried hard but it just wouldn't come up
It's on the tip of my tongue, it's in the front of my mind
Yet the words were still so hard to find
Finally the reality of things to come pushed me to the edge
I jumped off the cliff into the abyss as I said
[Chorus]
I'm not trying to be a nuisance
I just think we can do better than this
That was simply my two cents
You can, you can take it or leave it
The conversation lingered on and on and
Before I knew it night had turned to dawn and
Were we searching for the truth in all of it?
Or are we debating just to win the argument?
'Cause none of us want to hear about where we go wrong
This song could easily be from me to you or me to John
'Cause I have the potential to be the guiltiest
My greatest strength is also my strongest weakness
[Chorus x2]
Let's think about this path that we're taking
Let's think about this future we're creating
Let's think about this life that is fading
Think about it, come on, think about it now
Let's think about this time that we're spending
Investing in monetary things that are ending
Let's think about it and let's think together
And let's think about what we can do to make it better
[Chorus x4]
We can and we will do better than this [x8]
