Lyrics
My decision can not be put off again
Expressing the urgency of making a decision without delay.
I see the right choice but my heart is filled with dread
Seeing the correct choice but feeling anxious or fearful about it.
It all seems backwards in my head, my head
Feeling confusion or disorientation in the thought process.
I know it seems too wrong to be right
Acknowledging that the apparent right choice may feel morally or emotionally challenging.
This way is so much harder to fight
Recognizing that the chosen path is more difficult to face or confront.
But in the end I know it is true
Believing that, ultimately, the difficult choice is the correct one.
This way is better, it's better for you
Asserting that the challenging path is better for the well-being of someone else.
Choose a little pain and gain a life with joy
Opting for temporary pain to attain a future life filled with joy.
Accepting pleasure now will earn a life of pain
Warning against seeking immediate pleasure, as it leads to long-term suffering.
It all seems backwards in my head, my head
Reiterating the feeling of mental confusion or contradiction.
I know it seems too wrong to be right
Acknowledging that the perceived right choice may feel morally or emotionally challenging (repeated idea).
This way is so much harder to fight
Reaffirming the difficulty of the chosen path (repeated idea).
But in the end I know it is true
Reiterating the belief that, ultimately, the difficult choice is the correct one (repeated idea).
This way is better
Emphasizing that the challenging path is better.
It's better for you, for you
Affirming that the difficult choice is better for the well-being of someone else (repeated idea).
Sometimes I wonder why it's this way
Expressing curiosity or doubt about the reasons for the difficulty in the chosen path.
When it's done the burden is gone
Anticipating relief or liberation once the challenging decision is made.
This discomfort will be taken away
Believing that the discomfort will be removed after facing the challenge.
As soon as it's over, it's over for me
Expecting that the difficulty will end once the decision is made.
I know it seems too wrong to be right
Reiterating that the perceived right choice may feel morally or emotionally challenging (repeated idea).
This way is so much harder to fight
Reaffirming the difficulty of the chosen path (repeated idea).
But in the end I know it is true
Reiterating the belief that, ultimately, the difficult choice is the correct one (repeated idea).
This way is better

It's better for you, for you
Affirming that the difficult choice is better for the well-being of someone else (repeated idea).
