I'm thinking that I'm gonna make it now I said I'd give it a try But the same old habits trickle down And leave me hanging out to dry But before I chose to do it all I had to fine a new light The dogs were great, but they were small And I was the only one that they'd bite
The fire is burning hot tonight I think I stay here inside Calm my nerves and try to write And shed my prejudiced pride They're seemingly simple tasks to have And yet they fill me with dread Four legs good and two legs bad Chase each other around in my head
If I'm not looking out for where I'm giving in [Ooh-ooh-ooh Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh] It'll be another hit I'll take on the chin And when it heals and the scarring's started to fade [Ooh-ooh-ooh Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh] I'll go right back to where I tried to begin
If I can't stop it, no one can It makes no sense to slow down And one trip through my neighborhood Can make me despise this town As several people pass me by I felt the ice in their eyes And my reflection came to mind And it forced me to realize
That if I'm not looking out for where I'm giving in [Ooh-ooh-ooh Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh] It'll be another hit I'll take on the chin And when it heals and the scarring's started to fade [Ooh-ooh-ooh Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh] I'll go right back to where I tried to begin
I'm thinking that I'm gonna make it now I said I'd give it a try But the same old habits trickle down And leave me hanging out to dry But before I choose to do it all I'll have to find some new light [Ooh-ooh-ooh] The dogs were great, but they were small And I was the only one that they'd bite
