(Nick) Before you’re pointing at me,
There is a possibility,
You better turn that finger around
Defense comes easily
So don’t you tread on me
Cause I will knock you down

Some days it seems it’s not worth it
The fight in me is all gone
And I’m not trying to be perfect
To just get one damn thing done.
Before I lose control
I pick myself up off the floor.

Before you’re pointing at me,
There is a possibility,
You better turn that finger around
Defense comes easily
So don’t you tread on me
Cause I will knock you down

(SA)
Never come a day that’ll solve you
Consequently I could never leave you
In the shadow of those living battleships, I love our canoe
I’m ready for the falls and the still waters we will find our true

(Nick)
Oh there’s a clock in my head
And despite what it said
Another one in the wall
We don’t agree at all
And this just gives รข??em to me
And despite what you see
You must see me as calm, but I don’t want to give up.

Before you’re pointing at me,
There is a possibility,
You better turn that finger around
Defense comes easily
So don’t you tread on me
Cause I will knock you down

Woah
Ohh in the comfort of strangers
You don’t see the danger of just letting it flow
This I know.

Before you’re pointing at me,
There is a possibility,
You better turn that finger around
Defense comes easily
So don’t you tread on me
Cause I will knock you down
