AVOID By Tom Jensen
You thought you gave in
When you felt like giving up...
Guess you shouldn't
think about love
When you're stuck
down in a rut...
Yet that seems to be the time
When it's hardest to escape...
As tricks are played on your mind
Leavin' you in such rough shape...
Is this really to be your fate?
Did ya miss the boat?
Is it too late?
Yeah, you watched it leave the bay
Which means you weren't on it
Left the diamond ring
still in your coat pocket
Forgotten and lost when
you went off to pawn it
Oh, what a crying shame
But don't let it ruin your day
At least you can still say
That you got a good name
But you've got a void inside
Eating you alive
You gotta feed it!!!
Though nobody can tell you
What you should do:
To fill it...
To kill it...
Embrace it...
Or defeat it...
You thought you gave in
When you felt like giving up...
Guess you shouldn't think
'bout such stuff
When you're stuck
down in a rut...
I think sometimes we think too much...
