"Completion" lyrics
"Completion"
It's never easy when you don't know how
You never learn it till it's ending
What you looked for then ain't what it looks like now
Not what you were intending
But, hey, it's done now, I think it's fine
It isn't perfect, but I think it's mine
And the outside view is that you really knew what you were doing
But that's the thing about "done": it's not the end of a run
It's just a place for resting
There might be more to say, and all the shades of gray
But maybe not so interesting
And so, it's alright to say I'm stopping here
If it ain't the end, I'm pretty sure it's near
And in the dimming light, no one should fight your right to drop a curtain
Looking back, when you can trace the tracks of every step you've taken
It only looks all planned because you never scan all the steps forsaken
But look ahead now and tell me what you see
Not so clear, and if you think like me
You'll simply take what comes and forgo anticipation
So look ahead now and tell me what you see
Not so clear, and if you think like me
You'll simply take what comes and forgo anticipation

But they was always...
Mary Gauthier - "Slip Of The Tongue" Honey sit down
I've got something to say
Last night I drowned
I got carried away
Swept up in the feelings
The words poured out of me
This morning I'm scared
I don't know how to be
My heart moves...
James McMurtry - "We Can't Make It Here" Vietnam Vet with a cardboard sign
Sitting there by the left turn line
Flag on the wheelchair flapping in the breeze
One leg missing, both hands free
No one's paying much mind to him

Delbert McClinton - "Down Into Mexico" There was a casino out in Vegas
Had a million dollars on the wall
Got my imagination workin' overtime
I knew I had to have it all

Lives in a house of stone
You better not cuss
You better not roam
