An Open Ending

Tell Mama you'll be ok
Tell her stay calm
Tell Daddy it's much too late
To twist your arm

It's time to go and find something that's yours
That no one can steal away
It's time to open the doors
To your secret place

There's no answer as big as the question
There's no victory as big as the lesson
You go on and you see where your detours
Will take you to
There's no power like understanding
There's no beginning like an open ending
You hold on you don't stop to believe
If you follow through
You will learn what is good for you
Someday soon you will know what is best for you

Tell Mama you be alright
Tell her have faith

It's time to go and find something that'll last
That no one can lose or break
It's time to own up to the task
And go make your own mistakes

There's no answer as big as the question
There's no victory as big as the lesson
You go on and you see where your detours
Will take you to
There's no power like understanding
There's no beginning like an open ending
You hold on you don't stop to believe
If you follow through
You will learn what is good for you
Someday soon you will know what is best for you
