A.s.a.p. No Side (games' Over)
YOU CLOSED YOUR EYES AND PRAYED A LITTLE
BREATHING DEEP THE DYING GRASS ONE MORE TIME
HOW I REMEMBER THIS
FORTY YARDS AWAY THE GOAL POSTS
THE CLOCK RAN DOWN YOU KICKED THE BALL
THINKING IT COULDN’T MISS
WHEN IT DID YOU STOOD THERE WITH A WEIGHT ON YOUR SHOULDERS
AND YOU DUSTED OFF THE DIRT AND COLDLY STARTED AT THE COLD GROUND
TIME RAN OUT-GAME WAS OVER WHEN THE CROWD BAD LEFT THE STADIUM
STILL YOU WERE STANDING THERE
WHAT WERE THE GOALS YOU HAD IN MIND THAT DAY?
WHAT DID YOU SACRIFICE TO PLAY THE GAME?
HOW CAN I EVER KNOW?
YOU RAN MUCH LONGER THAN THE LONGEST CHEER
RAN FASTER THAT EXCITEMENT DISAPPEARS
DIDN’T END HOW YOU PLANNED IT
HOW CAN I UNDERSTAND IT
WELL I CAN’T KNOW YOUR FEELINGS FROM UP HERE
NOW I BREATHE A BRAND NEW WINTER
CAUSE IT’S TIME TO START THE SEASON NEW
THIS TIME IT’S WITHOUT YOU
SOMEONE NEW WEARS YOUR NUMBER AND THE CROWD YELLS IN WONDER
THOUGH YOUR PLAYING DAYS ARE NOW BEHIND YOU I WOULD TELL YOU STILL
PEOPLE IN THE STANDS FORGET YOU THEY HAVE FOUND ANOTHER HERO BOY
BUT I NEVER WILL
WHAT WERE THE GOALS YOU HAD IN MIND THAT DAY?
WHAT DID YOU SACRIFICE TO PLAY THE GAME?
HOW CAN I EVER KNOW?
YOU RAN MUCH LONGER THAN THE LONGEST CHEER
RAN FASTER THAN EXCITEMENT DISAPPEARS
DIDN’T END HOW YOU PLANNED IT
HOW CAN I UNDERSTAND IT
WELL I CAN’T KNOW YOUR FEELINGS FROM UP HERE
PEOPLE IN THE STANDS FORGET YOU THEY HAVE FOUND ANOTHER HERO BOY
BUT I NEVER WILL
