I thought I was smart
I thought I was right
I thought it better not to fight
I thought there was a virtue
In always being cool

So when it came time to fight
I thought I'll just step aside
And that time would prove you wrong
And that you would be the fool

I don't know where the sun beams end
And the star light begins
It's all a mystery

Oh to fight is to defend
If it's not now then tell me when
Would be the time that you
Would stand up and be a man
For to lose I could accept but to surrender
I just wet and regretted this moment
Oh that I--
I was the fool

I don't know where the sun beams end
And the star light begins
It's all a mystery
And I don't know how a man decides
What's right for his own life
It's all a mystery

Cuz I'm a man not a boy
And there are things you can't avoid
You have to face them
When you're not prepared to face them
If I could I would
But you're with him now
It'd do no good
I should have fought him
But instead I let him
I let him take it

I don't know where the sun beams end
And the star light begins
It's all a mystery
And I don't know how a man decides
What's right for his own life
It's all a mystery
