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 were the fool
I don't know where the sunbeams end
Or the starlight begins, it's all a mystery
Oh, to fight is to defend
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, and that I was the fool
I don't know where the sunbeams end
Or the starlight begins, it's all a mystery
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 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, let him take it
I don't know where the sunbeams end
Or the starlight begins, it's all a mystery
And I don't know how a man decides
What's right for his own life, it's all a mystery
I don't know where the sunbeams end
Or the starlight begins, it's all a mystery
And I don't know how a man decides
What's right for his own life, it's all a mystery
Mystery
