Monday morning, the sun is high
And i just don't feel that today
Should be laid to waste.
You see they've been calling
An absent body always seems to cause some concern
But i'll never learn

Cause i'm holding on
And i'm too far gone
So believe me when i say
That i will not be there.
You can try to say
That i'm wasting my time
But that's hard to consider
When i'm sitting out here.

I feel the ocean
The breeze that's blowing in my lungs and i take it all down
Then pass it around.
I'll live the simple life
And prove to you that a life resolved
Is not that far.
I've an offer,
A care free job in a world that will take you away
And you start today.

Cause i'm holding on
And i'm too far gone
So believe me when i say
That i will not be there.
You can try to say
That i'm wasting my time
But that's hard to consider
When i'm sitting out here.

Why look at the time?
Try believing by seeing whats coming to you through my eyes
You might see the ocean, my toes in the sand.
You might see why im choosing to ignore all of your demands

Cause i'm holding on
And i'm too far gone
So believe me when i say
That i will not be there.
You can try to say
That i'm wasting my time
But that's hard to consider
When i'm sitting out here.
