Magnificent starts can lead to disappointing faith
|
All the bridges that we built
|
Just from a spark can be
|
Engulfed in flames, well
|
|
Get a grip they are decisions that we made
|
Get a grip it's a decision that you made
|
|
You came from a different place
|
To discover different faces
|
Well they don't read just like your favorite books,
|
They're way too hard to place
|
|
The night has come, You're not quite sure where you will stay,
|
Get a grip it's a decision that you made.
|
|
Chorus:
|
Be careful, You might just get what you want
|
But what you want isn't what you need
|
Such poor predictions
|
You can practice indecision
|
while you get back on your feet
|
You held a heart
|
It was more than just a magnificent start
|
You are the paradigm of purity
|
Tanscended teenage love
|
|
Oh just wait
|
Complexities of a fickle mind
|
State will do more than tear this tryst apart
|
|
He'll take it back
|
This time the consequence is permanant
|
He'll drink himself to sleep
|
Over the carelessness and the secrets he couldn't keep
|
|
Finally a returned phone call and hear her say
|
"Get a grip a boy,
|
it's a decision that you made"
|
|
Chorus
|
|
Get a grip, And get back on your feet, Get a grip, And get back On your feet!
|
|
We made a pact
|
We're allowed to react
|
But I swore on my name
|
That we all won't cry if you don't
|
|
We made a pact
|
We're allowed to react
|
But I swore on my name
|
That I won't cry if you don't
|
|
This is all how we react
|
And I swear by name we will get past this
|
If I have any say in the matter
|
And as a matter of fact, I do
|
