The Outcome Songtext
von Ripe

Hey, lost cub, where you headed? How cute you think
It ever gets better, how sweet you think that this
Just gets worked out
Hey lost cub, where you goin′?
How nice, you think the truth's worth knowin′
How brave, to hope that life cares to calm you down

If it's all about the outcome, how do you choose a direction?
How do you deal with the tension of an answer
You couldn't possibly know?
If it′s all about the outcome
How do I handle reflection?
How can I deal with the searchin′
And the answer I'm looking for?
Heavy I′m letting go
Try to hear you


So, if you're tellin′ me the answer's no
So, if I′m ever gonna be
Assumin' my decision is the right one
For the outcome that I'm aimin′ for
What the hell am I aimin′ for?

Hey, lost cub, why so heavy?
How sad to think you keep forgetting
How much the way it hits you's in your hands
Hey, lost cub, hold that smile
How sweet to think it′s all worthwhile
How grand to think the other understands

If it's all about the outcome
How can I live from a lesson?
How do I deal with the tension
Of an answer I couldn′t possibly know?
If it's all about the outcome
How do I handle reflection?
How can I deal with the searchin′
And the answer I'm looking for?
Heavy I'm letting go
Try to hear you


So, if you′re telling me the answer′s no
So, if I'm ever gonna be
Assumin′ my decision is the right one
For the outcome that I'm aimin′ for
What the hell am I aimin' for?

If it′s all about the outcome
Keep whomever be an outcome
If the present is an outcome
If you're waiting for the outcome
Tried to warn you

So, if you're tellin′ me the answer′s no
So, if I'm ever gonna be
Assumin′ my decision is the right one
For the outcome that I'm aimin′ for
What the hell am I aimin' for?
So, if you′re tellin' me the answer's no
So, if I′m ever gonna be
Assumin′ my decision is the right one
For the outcome that I'm aimin′ for
What the hell am I aimin' for?
So, if you′re tellin' me the answer′s no
So, if I'm ever gonna be
Assumin' my decision is the right one
For the outcome that I′m aimin′ for
What the hell am I aimin' for?
