(The test begins) Thought I was smart, I thought I was right I thought it better not to fight I thought there was a virtue In always being cool So it came time to fight, I thought I'll just step aside And that the time would prove you wrong And that you would be the fool I don't know where the sunbeams end and that the starlights begin It's all a mystery Oh, to fight is to defend If it's not now then tell me when Would be the time That you would stand up and be a man For to lose I could accept But to surrender I just wept And regretted this moment, oh that I, I was the fool I don't know where the sunbeams end
and that the starlights begin It's all a mystery And I don't know how a man decides what's right for his own life It's all a mystery Cause I'm a man, not a boy And there are things you can't avoid You have to face them when you're not prepared to face them If I could, I would, but you're with him I'd do no good I should have fought him but instead I let him, I let him take you I don't know where the sunbeams end and that the starlights begin It's all a mystery And I don't know how a man decides what's right for his own life It's all a mystery (The test is finished)
