Songtext A shy dog Yo La Tengo

A shy dog

Sitting at home inside yourself
Thinking it's cool to be so reserved
And it's kind of funny
Lying in bed that night, wasting time, wasting time
And I know how that is, want to know how that is
How do these days go by, why does time move so slow
When are my decisions made
Make a new plan that you're going to be strong
Eat a bit of lunch and the moment's gone
But not quite forgotten
When you alone at night, reflecting time, reflecting time
And I know where that leads, want to know where that leads
How do these days go by, why does time move so slow
When are my decisions made
When that day comes, you're sure you're going to know
You're like some shy dog looking for the nerve
Looking for the nerve to bite
Start to react, too smart to miss
You're coming just until you resent
It's turning into a problem
Lying awake at night, just wasting time, wasting time
And I know where that leads, do you want to know where that leads
How do these days go by, why does time move so slow
How do these days go by, why does time move so slow
When are my decisions made, I'll never know, I'll wonder
