Pretty Damn Close
I didn't take the time
To face the facts
Hastily signed a contract
And when I reaped
What I had sown
I couldn't get
My money back
All the fees
They kept hidden
The small details
They didn't want me to know
I didn't quite go broke
But I came pretty damn close
Speak up or
Forever hold your peace
That's when everybody
Looked back at me
If someone's
Running unopposed
I just gotta throw my
Hat in the ring
Got plenty of reasons
To stand up and make
My grievances known
I didn't win the vote
But I came pretty damn close
I've been trying to take
The scenic route
I wanna see what the
Fuss is all about
Sometimes the truth
Is too much to behold
You lose your nerve
And turn around
Can't bring myself
To see the ocean
Where these rivers all
Supposedly flow
I haven't cleared the coast
But I'm getting
Pretty damn close
It's not a lethal dose
It sure feels
Pretty damn close
To face the facts
Hastily signed a contract
And when I reaped
What I had sown
I couldn't get
My money back
All the fees
They kept hidden
The small details
They didn't want me to know
I didn't quite go broke
But I came pretty damn close
Speak up or
Forever hold your peace
That's when everybody
Looked back at me
If someone's
Running unopposed
I just gotta throw my
Hat in the ring
Got plenty of reasons
To stand up and make
My grievances known
I didn't win the vote
But I came pretty damn close
I've been trying to take
The scenic route
I wanna see what the
Fuss is all about
Sometimes the truth
Is too much to behold
You lose your nerve
And turn around
Can't bring myself
To see the ocean
Where these rivers all
Supposedly flow
I haven't cleared the coast
But I'm getting
Pretty damn close
It's not a lethal dose
It sure feels
Pretty damn close
