Did i make a clean escape?
Or will i feel you pull me back again?
The choices made have left a bitter taste
But i never told you
Should have told you
Got this city on it's knees
And i think i like it
Can't you see that this is killing me?
Cause every line in every song
Reminds me of where i belong
Can't pretend that what you said back then
Was nothing more than desperate lies
So i turn my back and say goodbye
(alright!)
You'll never bring me down
So will i make it through the night?
The things i used to hold on to
They're all gone
The choices made have left a bitter taste
But i never told you
Should have told you
Walk away
Turn and watch as it falls to the ground
The sky opens up to swallow you whole
(this city never forgets a face
And i've spent too long in this awkward place
All i want is to be free
Cause you're all f*cking dead to me)
Baby, tell me
Can't you see that this is killing me?
Cause every line in every song
Reminds me of where i belong
Can't pretend that what you said back then
Was nothing more than desperate lies
So i turn my back and say goodbye
