(music: s.macdonald/arcwelder lyrics: s.macdonald)

He who hesitates is me[

My indecision's yours to see

I have these words to say

But they don't come til you're away



All i want to do is define

The grey areas yours and mine

Mind races excuse excuse

I can't pry my tongue loose



[chorus]

I am a chickenshit

Libido's low my heart's with it

So i write this dubious hit

I am a chickenshit



The subject's getting old

I strike while the iron's cold

I could tell you anything

Except what my tongue won't bring

I've had enough of this

Wounds with a lemon twist

What's that on your left hand shadows of a wedding band



[chorus]



Why repeat the past

Memories will last

Not a lot to say

Say it anyway



What is past you now

Seems a sacred cow

All i wanted was to give us both some hope

I'm not good enough

I'm not strong enough

To be creator and destroyer of the rope

Are you sitting down

Yes you're sitting down

You should be running but your past's a ball and chain

You know all about the first step

But can you take what comes next

The wind's direction doesn't need a weather vane

Are you happy now?

Are you happy now

I was open but your walls were in the way

Just a little faith in me

Just a little empathy

You could be dealing with a different man today

Sit down
