A Firm Kick

A firm kick in the pants

This last chance to get things right

This was one time I closed an eye



Looked away from you

Look out for yourself tonight

Sometimes I have to get things right



I never meant what I said to you

Give up all the things that you love to do

I'd never guessed that you'd do me wrong

I'll never except that dance and song



A little time to adjust

Would be just what we need

I've meant to tell you what I think that you think

When I cross your mind



Forgone

Stressed at the light

What's wrong with being uptight



I never say what I intend to

But does it mean that much to you

I'd close call with a glitch in time

Are you really that happy to be mine



No I'm not disguising

All that fighting

And dreams not coming true



I will play some light from the sun

The world by my side

And I will see dawn as a forlorn maiden in the sky

And I will play a song of thunder you may recognize

You make a never

That's forever

Knowing what you deny



When I revisit the past it's a blast

I've just gotta move on

I've just let down someone I relied on

And I don't see why

How'd we pretty up that speech

MC talking through me



I've never done what I set out to do

Don't come to me 'cuz I'll run from you

Left out of life would I really care

Not a whole lot

There's nothing for me there



I'll never forget the limits that we set

Back when it was our moon

And I never made a pretense of living with good sense

It's really not my strong suit.
