Full Force
I hope you heard the sound, just like when a rubber band breaks
But you've got an open mind and a firm handshake
So you say, "Let's lay our cards, lay our cards upon the table,"
But frankly, baby, I just don't think that I am able
To ante up, play another hand
Think I'm best to fold, think it's best to stand
And just walk away, 'cause this game is just too hard
I'll try another day when no one's counting cards
'Cause you're too scared
To let love run its course
You'll throw away redemption
And welcome on remorse
You tire of the pain
But run right back to the source
So this is what it feels like
To be hit at full force
You say you recognize it, you say you know the reasons
Well if you don't like the snow, then why don't you change seasons?
Security is only what you make it
You think you're fully clothed but you find out that you're naked
The clothes you threw away were the ones that fit you best
You wish that you still had them in order to get dressed
A false sense of comfort has you on a leash
You see a taste of Heaven, but it's just out of reach
'Cause you're too scared
To let love run its course
You'll throw away redemption
And welcome on remorse
You tire of the pain
But run right back to the source
So this is what it feels like
To be hit at full force
As much as I'd like to, I can't stick around
I'm supposed to be a man, I'm supposed to stand my ground
But being a man is more than muscles in my shirt
It's knowing when to stick your head out, and when to hit the dirt
I know the feeling I want
And I know where it's from
But I can't wait for something
That's not going to come
'Cause you're too scared
To let love run its course
You'll turn down the stagecoach
And settle for the horse
You tire of the pain
But run right back to the source
This is getting hit at full force
