I’m kicking me when I’m down
When I’m already on the ground
Seeing your form all around town
Wonderin’ if it’s you when they turn around
I'm on high alert , eyes wide open
I'm on high alert, saving my emotion
Oh, when I pass the corner
I’ll watch for the mistakes that I won’t make
I’m on high alert
I’m on high alert
Saw myself here some time ago
If I could warn me wish I could know
Can’t change the past
But I’ll make the future
Dear wiser me
Get wiser sooner
I'm on high alert , eyes wide open
I'm on high alert, saving my emotion
Oh, when I pass the corner
I’ll watch for the mistakes that I won’t make
I’m on high alert
I’m on high alert
Eyes wide open to a new day arising
Shedding the fear from the cast
Walking around without needing a reason
Blank slate ticket to pass
Goodbye at last
Can’t change the past
So I’ll make the future
Dear wiser me
Get wiser sooner
