in a marriott parking lot
by the market where you stop for lunch
is what looks to be her car and it seems strange
so you do a u-turn ‘cause you’re curious
then you see the dream catcher on the mirror
and the familiar bumper sticker and you feel rage
you could make yourself known
and suddenly be all alone
being right is a big responsibility
be sure right is what you want to be
you wear the rewind button out
on every movie movie scene about deceit
they all handle it so cool
throw a drink in the face of a used-to-be lover
take a swing or two at a perfect stranger
and cut to the scene where everything’s brand new
it don’t work like that
there aint no going back
being right is a big responsibility
be sure right is what you want to be
if you wanted a reason, you’ve got a reason
who’s to say which is worse, to give or to receive
freedom, sure everyone wants freedom
but take it in small doses ‘cause you can overdose on freedom
you tell yourself there are people who
spend their whole lives with a lie they choose to believe is true
they wanna believe so much
at least you can say you’re not alone
when you’ve turned your back on every sign that’s shown to you
it’s not that you’re that out of touch
everything is very clear
except for where to go from here
being right is a big responsibility
take your time it’ll come to you eventually
being right is a big responsibility
be sure right is what you want to be
