Fight Test (Live on WXRT 5/2/03)

I thought I was smart, I thought I was right
I thought it was better not to fight
I thought there was a virtue in always being cool
So it came time to fight, I thought I'd just step aside
And that time would prove you wrong
And that you would be the fool

I don't know where the sun beams end, starlights begin
It's all a mystery

Oh, to fight is to defend
And if it's not now, then 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, starlights begin
It's all a mystery
That I was a fool
And I don't know how a man decides what's 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 'em when you're not prepared to face 'em
And if I could, I would
But you're with him now, it'd do no good
And I should've fought him but instead I let him
I let him take it

I don't know where the sun beams end, starlights begin
It's all a mystery
I let him take it
And I don't know how a man decides what's right for his own life
It's all a mystery
