Crucial Moment

So many people will come and go

Past their time before they know

Swear they were there from the start

Never had it in their hearts

Things you do--come back to you

Things you've said--echo on inside your head

Figureheads come cheap these days

No one listens to what they say

In their faces I see the fear

A crucial moment drawing near

You pay the price--take bad advice

What they said--echoes on in your head
