Lyrics

[Verse 1]
He wakes up in the morning
Does his teeth bite to eat and he's rolling
Never changes a thing
The week ends, the week begins
She thinks, we look at each other
Wondering what the other is thinking
But we never say a thing
These crimes between us grow deeper
[Instrumental]
Take these chances
Place them in a box until a quieter time
Lights down, you up and die
[Verse 2]
Goes to visit his mommy
She feeds him well his concerns
He forgets them
And remembers being small
Playing under the table and dreaming
[Chorus]
Take these chances
Place them in a box until a quieter time
Lights down, you up and die
[Instrumental]
Driving along this highway
All these cars end up on the sidewalk
People in every direction
No words exchanged
No time to exchange
[Bridge]
When all the little ants are marching
Red and black antennae waving
They all do it the same
They all do it the same way
[Verse 3]
Candyman tempting the thoughts of a
Sweet tooth tortured by the weight loss
Program cutting the corners
Loose end, loose end, cut, cut
On the fence, could not to offend
Cut, cut, cut, cut
[Chorus]
Take these chances
Place them in a box until a quieter time
Lights down, you up and die
[Instrumental]
Lights down, you up and die
