Lyrics
What was it?
Was it too strong?
Did it remind you of your troubled past?
A wind of doubt came along
Blowing sticks and straws out from its path
It all went too far too fast
Was it meant to end here?
Some good things refuse to last
Was it meant to end here?
Anyway, I ain't mad enough to blow your door down
Break it down to what it is
Just burn some bridges on your way here
Break it down to smaller pieces and pick up the ones you need
It all went too far too fast
Was it meant to end here?
Some good things refuse to last
Was it meant to end here?
Anyway, I ain't mad enough to blow your door down
One thought to get along with
One to accept the way it is
One thought to make my own here
It can't get more trivial than this
