Closing in on December
And it's hard to remember
All our plans got dismembered
But we ended up right here
Lost track of the timing
Looking for silver lining
Getting old and un-winding
But it's still not very clear
So it's true that we build up
Our lives around safety routines
So what's new at the end of the day
We're well-oiled machines
Deceive me so sweetly
I need the innocent ones to revolt
Pull the wool from my eyes
'Cause it takes the change
I never make I don't want to make do
With same mistakes
Picture spending the evening
In the middle of Cleveland
Say goodnight to what we've been
In Eastern Standard Time
Head South through the Mid-West
Gas stops and the big rest
Is it in your best interest
To break the ties that bind
So, it goes that we never live up
To the goals that we set
So we know that the more we get done
Well the harder it gets
Deceive me so sweetly
I need the innocent ones to revolt
Pull the wool from my eyes
'Cause it takes the change
I never make I don't want to make do
With same mistakes
So, as gray as the clouds get
I take comfort in knowing
They're not turning black
We get only get so far
Before eventually we're just turning back
Deceive me so sweetly
I need the innocent ones to revolt
Pull the wool from my eyes
'Cause it takes the change
I never make I don't want to make do
With same mistakes
