Piranhas - Umphrey's McGee

Turn your back in a forfeit way

Take out loans no one could pay

This reddish glint it gleams on black

Clings like piranhas to your back

Is this that trivial to you

It’s not impossible to lose your grip

It’s foolish things that people do

I understand I’m guilty too

If only for a moment I could stop the wheels from spinning

Would everything I’ve broken finally start to feel forgiving

You think all those things are worth your while

Are they waiting or just startin' to pile up

If only for a moment I could stop the wheels from spinning

It’s so informal at the seams

Remains too difficult to reach

Feels like it clogs my arteries

As we get stuck somewhere between

I’m not suggesting we give in

Or reconsider where we’ve been

This distance seems so commonplace

Apologizing to save face

To save face

If only for a moment I could stop the wheels from spinning

Would everything I’ve broken finally start to feel forgiving

You think all those things are worth your while

Are they waiting or just startin' to pile up

If only for a moment I could stop the wheels from spinning
