I always enjoyed playing this one live because it was "busy" enough both lyrically and guitar-ically to cut through some of the espresso machine whine at the coffee shop. Also because I got to confess to one of my biggest regrets on my own terms.

lyrics

Took a stance, paid for my conviction
Till I had as much as I could take
Looking back my favorite decision
Was the one I never tried to make
But today I keep playing my position
Cause I never rely on my 20/20 vision
It’s like my mind and I can’t get along

Took a ride, the course of my collision
Was a life I never tried to live
Couldn’t hide my war and its attrition
Finally took as much as I could give
Now sometimes I can find my own volition
But I never react if I sense an imposition
It’s like my mind and I can’t get along

I’ve seen some trying times
I’ve been defying time
But now it’s defying time
And this is my trying time

Here I go no more indecision
Cause it’s been as long as I can wait
And I know I made the right revision
When I play each song that I create
It’s a lot but I’ve got a premonition
That whatever I’ve done my mistakes can be forgiven
That’s why this time I’ll try to get along

I love this album so much. So many perfect songs to fit all of the jaw dropping moments from this arc. Especially the diary of sheriff isaak. What a banger. fishfeets
