Right Left, Left Right
That shortcut, she's a beauty
but not one worth the commitment.
What's the point of a beauty if it leads to a life you cannot live with?
But that beauty, I mean she had me all confused.
The type of beauty that just
has
to be too good to be true,
But what the hell was I to do?
I've grown sick and tired of the endless days of blue,
I thought perhaps the universe decided it was time for the sun to shine through.
This beauty is the kind to both paralyze and blind you.
The sayings go:
"Put your best foot forward."
Trying I am to
"Start off on the right foot."
I've always believed my right to be best,
but perhaps that is why I am
always left,
walking through oceans of blue.
There's another saying a genius once wrote:
"Insanity is simply doing the same thing over and over, expecting different results."
I mean I was literally
moved
by that beauty,
but that wasn't the right foot.
So before you dareΒ follow with your
left, just remember this.
A shortcut no matter how appealing is better off
left.
Just remember this, sometimes you leave your best foot back,
So when you stray off your path,
You'll be one step closer back.
Right
Left
Right
Left
Right
Left
I've always put what I believed as my best foot forward but,
I've never
left right.
So now I will again attempt to start again, on the
right foot.
