Where do you go when no one listens to your words
Who do you look to when there's no one there to see
Oh, you're looking sort of flustered in the middle of the house
And fleeing to your civic in the blistering cold
Your muddy mouth has been sealed from the world
Do you ever stop and smell the roses
Do you ever stop and feel pretentious
Go out to the show and forget what you've been told
Nuisance protruding silence under the mistletoe
Oh, you've pondered the existence of an afterlife
And given it your all but you say how can it be
Don't confide in me, I'm as clueless as she
Have you ever been driving through the Rockies
Around the bend on the road you see a body
You were too far gone
And your ego called
He asked us to step back
Then your mama called
She said, "Beware of the attack"
Only if you'd like to spend a second of your time
To separate your reason from your quality of mind
Do you ever stop and smell the roses
Do you ever stop
You were too far gone
