Check Engine Light Songtext
von Man Random

It always seems like there′s a list of things I have to do
But I never have the energy to commit and follow through
Living for the moment, not thinking 'bout tomorrow
Only doing what I want on time I have to borrow

Oh why, oh why, do I
Get stuck inside my head

The only thing I′m good at
Is putting off my problems
No matter how easy
It is for me to solve them

And there's a check engine light
Lit up on my dashboard
It's a simple warning sign
One I′m choosing to ignore
But I keep driving


When I have a deadline my mind becomes so clouded
I try to distract myself so I don′t have to think about it
More and more as time goes on I fall so far behind
I don't know what′s happening that made me feel so blind

The only thing I'm good at
Is putting off my problems
No matter how easy
It is for me to solve them

When I have to send a message, when I have to make a phone call
When I have to fill out paperwork I freak out and start to stall

The only thing I′m good at
Is running from my problems
No matter how easy
It is for me to solve them

And there's a check engine light
Lit up on my dashboard
It′s a simple warning sign
One I'm choosing to ignore
But I keep driving
