I'm searching for lines and you're passing the time
And I'm waiting for nothing again
But then there's a moment, it comes, then it goes, then
I'm hanging on nothing again
You keep me on standby
So I'm standing 'til you come round
You keep me on standby
Feet are hurting but I stand my ground
I know you like to wind me up so without you I come unwound
You keep me on standby
Maybe it's time that I sat down
While you're keeping me, I'll be keeping busy
I'll keep up to keep off the withdrawal
Only comfortable when packed with hands my full
Still I'd drop it all at your call
You keep me on standby
So I'm standing 'til you come round
You keep me on standby
Feet are hurting but I stand my ground
I know you like to wind me up so without you I come unwound
You keep me on standby
Maybe it's time that I sat down
Would you stand for it the way I stand for it?
Or, do you know when to quit?
Am I too tolerant?
Is it that obvious I can't pull out my own chair to sit?
