double vision
bad decision
a collision
lost in the swell
this won't end well
it's show and tell

she's got the beat
take the heat and
go meet her be
sweet to her she's
gonna be oh
so free wait and
see let her lead
meet her need don't
exceed her or
plead with her for things she isn't giving up

a nice guy but kind of shy
living in the world and wondering why
things are so complicated

a sweet girl with a spicy smile
gonna stop and chat a while
about the way things are

a shining star, a ray of hope
dangles at the end of the rope
and all they can do is hang in there

some will freeze, some will drown
most will never come around
to face the truth or take the dare
they just stop and stare
they don't care

no one knows how the story ends
who will break and who will bend
what matters is they take a stand
just one more time

that which is over begins again
count it as loss, then count it as gain
forget all the tears, forget all the pain
turn off your thoughts on the down-bound train
