lirik lagu sidewalk labs - quiet man
i can never decide if he’s anything like me
or if he’s something i could not be
he says “your mother’s a lot like that,”
and i wonder what that means for me.
he says “i think you’ll turn out all right,”
and i think maybe that’s as much as i could be,
as much as i could ever be,
as much as i could be.
and i know he’s a quiet man,
and how could i hope to stand up
to a father i can’t understand.
how could i hope to understand?
when we drove through places he had been,
i could plainly see the stains of sin,
but it was the first such colors i had seen,
and i would not go back to those ways again
lest i should be the reverse of him.
and before i lose what’s left of him
i have to try to turn out all right
even if it’s a losing fight
and i know he is an honest man
and how can i hope to stand up
to a father i can’t understand, incapable of reprimand
and i know he’s a wiser man than he was when he was a younger man
and i know that he’s a quieter man
maybe he knows there’s more to understand
he says, “we’re all here for each other
there’s only one reason that i can see, and i’ve looked around for another
but i’ve had to adopt a new philosophy of mind
a philosophy of kindness.”
so i have to try to turn out all right
even if it’s a losing fight
and i know he is a quiet man, incapable of reprimand
and i know he’s a wiser man, that i could not hope to understand
and i know he’s a wiser man, but i could not hope to ever understand.
