I won't lie to you to fake emotions I might feel
and tell you things you want to hear

In this give-and-take, no lie, that feels 
lobsided and askew, sometimes like a tug of war

Breathlessly waiting, life in limbo
one toe in the water overly cautious
holding back ~

Stuck behind yield signs and stop signs
the occasional yellow lights
foot on the break ~ go but not too fast

Everyday is a lazy Sunday afternoon
we're out in our sporty lamborghini
dillydallying in life's slow lane
