The Idiouts - Shooting Straight

I gotta admit this is getting new for me
I don't know where I stand but I'm trying to feel complete
It's just come and go, it's just yes and no
But I wish a man would stay ion his feet
I can't say that I'm gonna change my ways
But I'm missing the sounds of yesterday
Can't you see that my dream is gone at last
But you can't seem to cling to my failing grasp
Grasp, Last

I'm growing and I'm towing 'round my own weight
But you wouldn't seem to think that if you saw my fate
It's done and I've won, I no longer have to wait
I'm just concentrated on Shooting Straight

I get these commands from my folks back home
Saying Megan pull yourself away from the phone
The teachers say to me Simon take your seat
But they can't phase me when I'm in my zone
They might think that they care, they might think I'm not aware
But I see past their grins and their nodding stares
I'm getting wise to you and your ever-changing view
But what i want to know is the you I'm seeing true
True, view, you

I'm growing and I'm towing 'round my own weight
But you wouldn't seem to think that if you saw my fate
It's done and I've won, I no longer have to wait
I'm just concentrated on Shooting Straight

You need to be the man that I idolize so much
You need to be around so I can hold and trust
I want to know if that our love can be free
You're the only man I need in my reality
So come home every night and tuck me in real tight
I know this won't last for long but that's alright
I'm on the cusp of out-growing you and that's a fact
But I'm hoping that our future can still be bright
Bright, right, tight

I'm growing and I'm towing 'round my own weight
But you wouldn't seem to think that if you saw my fate
It's done and I've won, I no longer have to wait
I'm just concentrated on Shooting Straight
