ADAM

I saw a fish on your bumper
does it really make you a saint
rust accompanying it under
hidden from the excess of paint
adam says his heart grows much stronger
if he runs just two miles a day
won't be needing friends any longer
adam says he's well on his way

chasing the clock
like chips off his old block and mine
running around
covering the same old ground they left behind

oh adam, can't fathom why things still going wrong
he says he's waiting for someone to take him away
oh adam, the random decisions of your day
is the chain tied to your leg and there you stay

adam thinks someone's gonna save him
yet taught to seek the answers within
doesn't seem to see contradiction
where all the troubles begin
adam says his heart grows much fonder
if he prays just two times a day
but by now you'd think he would wonder
if it's just the pew rent he pays

chasing the clock
like chips off his old block and mine
running around
covering the same old ground they left behind

oh adam, can't fathom why things still going wrong
he says he's waiting for someone to take him away
oh adam, the random decisions of your day
is the chain tied to your leg and there you stay
