One Way St. — текст песни (Jersey)

More than a year`s gone by since I lost my mother
Since she left I`ve thought well what`s the point
I`ve thought well I don`t know what I`m doing here
What`s the point if the meaning`s not clear?
But after crying, the clouds are clearing
My mother`s teaching me to make a mark
You see she, she lived with pride and she, spoke her mind and
When she left, that`s what she left behind

[Chorus]
The point we`re missing
It`s not what you had, it`s how you lived
The point we`re missing
It`s who you were and what you did

Don`t need no diamond rings
Don`t need to live like kings
And I still don`t know what we`re doing here
Try to make a mark and make my presence clear
To challenge right wing culture and move beyond
Live for life, it`s not too far gone
Exist or live, is time well spent?
And once you start thinking then you`ll know

[Chorus]

It`s and Iconoclast, has your moment passed?
There`s time to make it right
You`ve got to try and to try cause there`s just no giving in

I`m on the outside, on the outside looking in
I saw the battle of a lifetime
And she tried, and we tried, and we`re never giving in
Because I`ll see you on the bright side

[Chorus]

It`s how you live and it`s who you were
It`s what you did...it`s a one way street
