Lyrics
Taming My Own Impulse (Don Campau)
[verse]
Everything you’d like to see
A situation’s energy
And anything you want to have
Just take it, don’t forget my half.
[chorus]
I am trapped here now
There is no way
Out of my blues
[verse]
Hold it up for all to see
Don’t tell them that it came from me.
Remember when the light grows pale
That where I am, the air is stale.
[chorus]
I am changing now
I am taming
My own impulse
[break]
[verse]
A story you once told to me
Came back to me the other night
And hearing it again in dreams
Made my chest a little tight
[chorus]
I am challenged now
I am wrapped up
In my own self
[verse]
You told me that you’d like to see
Somebody else, and not see me
You lied and said you felt my grief
I knew it was just your relief
[break]
[chorus]
I am wondering now
Where you went
And how you’re doing
[verse]
Let’s just think of what was fun
And not those things I should have done
We can’t go back and change them now
I doubt that I would somehow
[chorus]
I remember why
It’s been years since
I’ve been selfless
