Laggard, Laggard (Version 5 Country Metal)

(Long Musical Intro)

(Verse 1)
You showed up late once again
Shoes are caked with mud from the pouring rain
Keys are tucked into the fold of your left hand
No explanations are needed for now
Because there’s nothing that you will gain

Apparently you said you took the slow road
You should have taken the quickest way 
You’re still milling around the lobby door
And I don’t understand this game that you play

(Pre-Chorus)
I kept the seat ready and warm
Kept the lights on the down low
You kept me here waiting
Way too long for you to show

(Chorus)
Laggard, Laggard
Say it all to my face
Laggard, Laggard
It’s always about one more day
Listen carefully cause I need you here
And I urgently need you now
Laggard, Laggard
Be a leader for the team and don’t let me down

(Verse 2)
Left over coffee that has gone cold
Sitting idly on the kitchen table 
Your chair is sitting unoccupied 
I’m fuming now and you have no idea of what I’m capable

I heard your child-like laugh
Down by the restroom hall
Then it vanished really fast
Because he went in and anchored himself 
Into an unoccupied bathroom stall

(Pre-Chorus)
I kept the seat ready and warm
Kept the lights on the down low
You kept me here waiting
Way too long for you to show

(Verse 3)
Maybe you’ll run from what I have to say
Maybe it’s the pull of the family home
Maybe you need some sort of incentive 
To arrive on-time with an attitude to go

But he’s standing on a narrow ledge
With an opportunity to open some doors
Move away from the tragic edge man
And give way to your complete self
So I won’t question your livelihood anymore

(Pre-Chorus)
I kept the seat ready and warm
Kept the lights on the down low
You kept me here waiting
Way too long for you to show
