Don't Push Me

Verse 1

Explain what

I ain't got time for that

None

Zero

Hard no

Cold shoulder

Moving past the noise you make

Dragging heavy boots through mud you stirred up

I see your mouth move

Hear the clicking

Hear the clucking

Hear the chatter

But I am miles away on a different track

Chorus

Don't push me

Don't pull me

Don't tell me what I need to be

I'm fine right here

I'm fine right here

Just let the water run under the bridge

Just let the water run under the bridge

I'm staying put

Post-Chorus

No no no

Nah nah

Not today

No no no

Verse 2

Pressure

Builds up high

Cooking in the kitchen while you watch the dial

Finger pointing

Finger wagging

Finger tapping

My skin is getting thick like a brick wall

Suit yourself

Leave me out of the plan

I won't jump

I won't run

I won't play

I am the anchor in your storm of paper ideas

Chorus

Don't push me

Don't pull me

Don't tell me what I need to be

I'm fine right here

I'm fine right here

Just let the water run under the bridge

Just let the water run under the bridge

I'm staying put

Bridge

Explain what

I ain't got time for that

You talk in circles

I walk in straight lines

You want a soldier

I want my own mind

My own mind

My own mind

Guitar Solo

Chorus

Don't push me

Don't pull me

Don't tell me what I need to be

I'm fine right here

I'm fine right here

Just let the water run under the bridge

Just let the water run under the bridge

I'm staying put

Outro

Explain what

I ain't got time for that

Explain what

I ain't got time for that

Not for you

Not for them

Not for anyone

I'm gone

I'm gone

I'm gone
