All of a sudden the conversation turns
And everyone concerned is looking down
Guilty party is right here in the room
But no one can assume the high ground
Oh it almost caught up with you
Caught up with you then
Oh you shouldve thought of this my friend
If you knew it was wrong why did you do it
You dont know, you didnt mean to, it slipped your mind
And it feels so good to feed a habit
Youre just making the most of your borrowed time
Waiting for the white light
Heading home you swear that youll be good
Do everything you should, and know the facts
But in the morning youre back to petty needs
Tragedy recedes to photographs
Oh it hasnt caught up with you
Caught up with you yet
No it hasnt taught you when to quit
If you knew it was wrong why did you do it
You dont know, you didnt mean to, it slipped your mind,
It is OK because everybody does it
This whole party is rolling on borrowed time
Waiting for the white light
Shine down
Wipe it all out again,
Show me how
It doesnt matter in the end
If you knew it was wrong why did you do it
You dont know, you didnt mean to, it slipped your mind
It is OK because everybody does it
No laws are broken if were all committing the same crime
But I know its wrong, why do I do it
I dont know, I dont mean for it to slip my mind
It just takes so much to break a habit
Even when Im aware we are out of time
Am I waiting for a white light
