(music r graber, words s macdonald) Gonna do myself a favor, quit while I'm behind It seems like all this hanging on will only mess up my mind And don't have many options at least none I can find It always seems so hard to take when what you're weaving unwinds Gonna do myself a favor, quit while I'm ahead Take some time to lick my wounds and write some music instead Take it out of me and purify what's left here in my soul Funny how what seems so free can take a very big toll Gonna do myself a favor, write it off as lost What I have to show from this does not keep up with the cost Gonna look around and think about the next step I should take Pull it back together the best decision I'll make
