Minute Man


I’ve been surrounded by critics, skeptics, the saved, the dammed, optimists, and pessimists, still they have not influenced me cause In the darkness I close my eyes And look to the sky Chin up, arms thrown back, I’m marching on Like a stalwart minute-man I’m forever marching on I’ve known the stoic, the expressive, the lustful, and the restrained, so far they haven’t tainted me cause In the darkness I close my eyes And look to the sky Chin up, arms thrown back, I’m marching on Like a stalwart minute-man I’m forever marching on I’ve been friends with jocks, nerds, punks, and preps yet in the cultural pandemonium I’ve not lost my way cause In the darkness I close my eyes And look to the sky Chin up, arms thrown back, I’m marching on Like a stalwart minute-man I’m forever marching on Forever marching on and on and on and on..
