Fight Test

I thought I was smart — I thought I was right
I thought it better not to fight — I thought there was a
Virtue in always being cool — so when it came time to
Fight I thought I’ll just step aside and that the time would
Prove you wrong and that you would be the fool —
I don’t know where the sun beams end and the star
Lights begins it’s all a mystery
Oh to fight is to defend if it’s not
Now than tell me when would be the time that you would stand up
And be a man — for to lose I could accept but to surrender
I just wept and regretted this moment — oh that I — I
Was the fool
I don’t know where the sun beams end and the star
Lights begins it’s all a mystery
And I don’t know how a man decides what right for his
Own life — it’s all a mystery
Cause I’m a man not a boy and there are things
You can’t avoid you have to face them when you’re not prepared
To face them —
If I could I would but you’re with him now it’d do no good
I should have fought him but instead I let him — I let
Him take it —
I don’t know where the sun beams end and the star
Lights begins it’s all a mystery
And I don’t know how a man decides what right for his
Own life — it’s all a mystery
