Highest Shelf

I'm not getting any younger

Waiting around for your bullshit

I've had it up to here, it's over and out

And I'm through with it

You're sitting around making love with your doubt

And you're full of it

Chain-smoking on your complacency

And it's time to quit

I've been asking why I still stay

But I'm paralyzed right here

I search for answers far away

The truth is in my fear

I'm putting all of my troubles on the highest shelf

I don't have the courage to fight for myself

Out of reach, don't look for me, don't ask to speak

Won't take the steps to make correct

This life I've lived is not my best

How come you're still stuck where I left you

Man, you're so depressed

As if anybody gives a shit about it

And you're so obsessed

Waiting every minute for someone to tell you"Don't hold your breath"

You don't come around here no more

And it's for the best

I've been asking why I still stay

But I'm paralyzed right here

I'm putting all of my troubles on the highest shelf

I don't have the courage to fight for myself

Out of reach, don't look for me, don't ask to speak

Won't take the steps to make correct

This life I've lived is not my best

I'm putting all of my troubles on the highest shelf

(Out of reach, don't look for me, don't ask to speak)

I don't have the courage to fight for myself

(Won't take the steps to make correct, this life I've wrecked)
