Forest For The Trees

Danko Jones


All you want to be is insane 
Wishing you were more than just plain 
And when you try you try too hard it comes off fake 

Many times I wanted to say 
Plastic people like you will break 
And soon enough it caught up and you went away 

And if I 
Never see 
You Again 
It'll be too soon to make amends 

And if I 
Never see 
You Again 
It'll be too soon to make amends 

You like it when you make people wait 
It's the only time you're calling the plays 
Controlling nothing makes you execrate 

Everybody knows you're in pain 
We all know it stems from the shame 
Because your actions called for a drastic fall from grace 

And if I 
Never see 
You Again 
It'll be to soon to make amends 

And if I 
Never see 
You Again 
It'll be to soon to make amends 

You suck up life like you're a needle 
Sticking in a vein for life 
Keep up appearances when needed 
You're used to changing overnight 

I always wondered if you saw 
What the rest of us could see 
Your every day's a final straw 
Can't see the forest for the trees 

And if I 
Never see 
You Again 
It'll be to soon to make amends
