Spend Time

Spend time with the energy Spend time with the energy Spend time with the enemy At college I started my own band And then I dropped out to play shows Found me a room where I live and rehearse I'm pretty excited to see how it goes Is what I would've said to the cousins I love At Christmas dinner when they asked me what I was up to If I had courage left Instead I told 'em I was teaching drum set I couldn't let it, I couldn't let it I couldn't let myself let it in I couldn't let it, I couldn't let it I couldn't let it, I couldn't let myself Spend time with the energy Spend time with the energy Spend time with the enemy Then my mother, she pulled me aside Looked me in the eye Said, "why you saying that?" "You're really doin' the band, don't be ashamed of it" Back in my room drumming with Paul He can rip it up like an animal But, when it was my turn I couldn't let go Or get out of my head Or into the flow I couldn't let it, I couldn't let it I couldn't let myself let it in I couldn't let it, I couldn't let it I couldn't let it, I couldn't let myself Spend time with the energy Spend time with the energy Spend time with the enemy
