Tool

[Verse 1] I used to catch the problems before they hit the ground stayed late to clean the mess when no one else was around Thought they'd see the weight I carried all these years but being too important here kept me from getting there They found somebody else to tell me what to do someone learning all the things I've already carried through [Chorus] You wanted a tool now here's your tool point me at the problem I'll do what you tell me to do And I look like the fool for believing in you you never wanted my voice you only wanted my use [Verse 2] Now every simple answer gets buried under plans ten people in a meeting just to move a single hand I see the cracks forming I know where they will lead there was a time I'd stop it before anybody had to bleed Now I send the warning then I close another screen caring more than everyone never did a thing for me [Chorus] You wanted a tool now here's your tool point me at the problem I'll do what you tell me to do And I look like the fool for believing in you you never wanted my voice you only wanted my use [Bridge] I would've given everything just for the chance to lead but you needed these hands more than the head attached to me So keep the hands you already lost the rest [Final Chorus] Call me when it's broken call me when it burns call me when the ones you chose don't know which way to turn I'll fix what I'm assigned to I'll answer when you ask but don't confuse me doing my job with giving a damn You wanted a tool now here's your tool and I look like the fool for ever trusting you
