Dag Nasty Justification
We have tried and failed We have stumbled and fallen We have tried a new taste and we spit it back out We have taken a left turn when we meant to turn right We lost sight of our origins but our past never lost sight of us lost sight of us It's not emulation - 'cause that's not this hard Not imitation - 'cause that won't take you far Not digression - 'cause I'm falling straight up It is progression - I'm not afraid to stand up I don't know what I expected but I expected it to be great I said "I'm trying my hardest" but he didn't like the tape Take a look at what you're doing and tell me I'm too late You say we're walking backwards Well, that dead horse sure can run It sure can run The truth I know I can I know I will I know - I know what I have to do And now you'll listen and I hope it won't hurt I've seen your poison You've done your worst I've seen your better and I can't believe it's true You've lost the truth that used to live inside of you
