Emergency

by: Tenpenny Joke

This could be an emergency
But no one's listening to me
I've shown you signs of dependency
But no one's listening to me
This could be an emergency
But you're not convincing me
The sirens have not left your side
The truck's still overturning
It's coming down on top of me
A sight so marvellous
It frightens me
The water's rushing beside of me
I'm scared I'll wash away
What's inside of me
Subliminal hate
Is aiding our minds
Believe in fate
'Cause it's changing our lives
But who's to say it in the morning when I wake up
Things wanna change but I will still remain
I'm losing faith in everything I used to take
Will I wake up again
And I'll see it
When I face it
And I'll change it, I will
This could be an emergency
But no one's listening to me
I'm showing you signs of dependency
But no one's listening to me
Subliminal hate
Is aiding our minds
Believe in fate
'Cause it's changing our lives
But who's to say it in the morning when I wake up
Things wanna change but I will still remain
I'm losing faith in everything I used to take
Will I wake up again
