Spartan Mentality

from Return To Solar by Fingerpaint

/

lyrics

This one is for the leagues and legions,
Outside of their comfort zone.
A subtle frown at my own reflection.
Means nothing to smile thrown in your direction.
I need to toughen up.
Start thinking on my feet.
Convince myself.
That I’m not this weak.

I may be down but I’m not out I’m just sitting watching walls, they’re crumbling and all the words I wrote down are running free, now you know what I think of you; what do you think of me?
I’m a lover not a fighter so I will be….right behind my heart, I’m a lover with a Spartan mentality now that I’ve got a fighting chance.

I’m a lover not a writer.
But I wrote some words for you.
And as a standard I barked them out.
Into a crowded room.
Some of who witness laughed.
As I sank once more.
But I saw a spark
As your smile was worn.

I may be down but I’m not out I’m just sitting watching walls, they’re crumbling and all the words I wrote down are running free, now you know what I think of you; what do you think of me?
I’m a lover not a fighter so I will be….right behind my heart, I’m a lover with a Spartan mentality now that I’ve got a fighting chance.

Push Forward
Right into the heart of me.
Push Forward
