Dependably

I wait a little time, make a little time

Gotta make sure my friends are fine

But when things take a turn down

When things take a twist around

You know you can come to me

I'll shelter you like a cat in the rain

Because I know that you need me

But God forbid the shoe's on the other foot

And you feel free to slam the door on me

I can't depend on you

You can depend on me

I wish you could do something for nothing

What do I get and what's in it for me?

Eyes everywhere, but the world can't see

I don't know how to make it any clearer

More people matter than the one in your mirror

Can't you do something, nothing, everything, anything.....

Dependably?

My standards have hit the ground

Sinking down, formed a new fault line

Your excuses take us down

And the fault's not yours, only mine

But when the earth shakes us

Moving us around like the motion can

Will you stand untouched

Or overflow like a shaken up soda can?

I can't depend on you

You can depend on me

I wish you could do something for nothing

What do I get and what's in it for me?

Eyes everywhere, but the world can't see

I don't know how to make it any clearer

More people matter than the one in your mirror

Can't you do something, nothing, everything, anything.....

Dependably?

You wait a long time, don't make enough time

Do you think I can be penciled in?

Can you spare a little attention?

I've got a book of things to say

And you're still late on the draw

I thought we had an appointment

But I won't say I'm disappointed

I can't depend on you

You can depend on me

I wish you could do something for nothing

What do I get and what's in it for me?

Eyes everywhere, but the world can't see

I don't know how to make it any clearer

More people matter than the one in your mirror

Can't you do something, nothing, everything, anything.....
