Lyrics
I've had a lot of time to think about the options. I still don't know where to go na na na...hey na na. I turn to the door that is waiting. Why can't I just walk inside? Trust me, I know that it's better this way. It's just hard to try.
So when you choose the wrong, remember that you were told. You didn't listen at all na na na...hey na na. "I told you so" is an understatement, don't you dare deny. When you go try to understand why I don't say goodbye.
The wind, it whispers and I can't remember the last time it spoke strongly. These ears fall short to hear what it's saying. I needed Christ to tell me where I'm going, going. You need Him, too, but till you find Him I'm here.
I don't suppose you know it hurts me when you say that coming up short feels good na na...hey na na. You broke down my soul when you headed that way, though it seemed to fit. I can't see why it's ending this way....hope that you know it.
