I Don't Think I'm Ever Gonna Figure It Out

Lyrics

I can wait, I can wait

I can sit wondering what in the world you think about

I don't think I'm ever gonna figure it out

After all the alcohol, the pretty words devolve down to slurs and drunken shouts

I don't think I'm ever gonna figure it out

Like some wild last frontier

You never know what kind of fight's gonna appear

That once begun, can't be won

Started out losing already and go all ten rounds

I don't think I'm ever gonna figure it out

The tired hits that fall below

I can't connect, yeah, yeah, I know

I can wait, I can wait

I can sit wondering what in the world you think about

I don't think I'm ever gonna figure it out
