Now that we're alone
Trouble, baby, doesn't always come in threes
I had a hunch the fight was thrown
But what's it going to take to get me to my knees?

It's a bad sign when I'm just marking time
A bad sign, hoping we'll be fine
A bad sign when I think this way
It's a bad sign

Been staring at a wall for days
Can't hold a position I will not reverse
The paper prints a simple phrase
But all I see are ciphers in iambic verse

It's a bad sign when I'm just marking time
A bad sign, hoping we'll be fine
A bad sign when I think this way
It's a bad sign

I hear a far off sound, it's kinda like a battleground
Hey, something's going dangerously wrong
"Evacuate the premises and take what you can carry"
Says a voice that sounds an awful lot like it's for real
But it's not

It's a bad sign when I'm just marking time
A bad sign, hoping we'll be fine
A bad sign when I think this way
It's a bad sign

It's a bad sign when I'm just marking time
A bad sign, hoping we'll be fine
A bad sign when I think this way
It's a bad sign
