There's four ways I could go on this road
Which path I choose does not determine that I know
What you would do if you were in my shoes
I smell that jet fuel in the sky
Remindin' me time after time
Of all the lonely nights and many flights I wasted on you
How I wish that I could change the past
You made me believe that it would last
Oh, oh
You took it all away with those dirty games you played
And you threw my little heart to the creatures of the dark
You never once looked around
But babe, I don't want you back
Guess I'm not the one to blame for what you lack
And I wanna take you down
Ya told me you had it all figured out
But baby, what you been talkin' about
You're confused as a little school boy
You don't know which way's up or down
Emotions on a ride, spinnin' round and round
Take what you came here with and leave no lies behind
Try to touch real life, and it's a shame
Now you're lost without a name
Back to the cold, worn world you've always known
Oh, oh
You took it all away with those dirty games you played
And you threw my little heart to the creatures of the dark
You never once looked around
But babe, I don't want you back
Guess I'm not the one to blame for what you lack
And I wanna take you
Down to the train tracks, I can hear it comin' on
Right toward you, baby, and you know where it's comin' from
Straight from the depths of an unheard place
Gonna take you back where you belong
I'll pretend I never laid eyes on your face
Goodbye and so long
'Cause you took it all away with those dirty games you played
And you threw my little heart to the creatures of the dark
You never once looked around
But babe, I don't want you back
Guess I'm not the one to blame for what you lack
And I wanna take you down, yeah
