lyrics

About as certain as he should be this time
We've lived through this tale far too many times
A heavy-steppin' right foot calls his bluff
My man's had enough
There's gotta be some other way
Be that as it may

About as cautious as he can be this time
Everybody's been saying he shouldn't be so kind
'Cause turnin' every cheek has left him sore
And it shakes me to the core
Who's gonna save the day
Be that as it may

He's walked a thousand tightropes unbeknownst to me
I've had to train my eyes to see

When the clouds break and the hellfire cools
And one day even kings will surely play the fool
We'll drop our arms and raise a welcome hand
And we'll take another stand
What else is there to say
Be that as it may

They gotta leave it alone
'Cause every time that tape is shown
I can't believe you'd take their side
And it does my head in and I cry
