We can't dwell on what could've been All apologies The road that stretches out is calling us to find our way back home You said it yourself, you said it yourself I know I'm hard to stomach But we need to move and get out of here Before this joint erupts And anywhere we go, we'll feel stuck Oh, what you want from me is not impossible Just give me some time to figure a way out of this mess For you and me and I will, I will Oh, you said it yourself, you said it yourself What you said, when you said what you need from me All apologies won't make things right with you tonight Oh, can't you see, as you drag me, I'm your favorite toy Oh, I'm so sorry but make up your mind, we're out of time Oh, mama, please, I'm on my knees, I'm your favorite boy Now it's hard for me to come clean and I'll tell you why I'm too damn ashamed, too damn ashamed Did you miss me?

Is there word or right to say Even in this old-fashioned way? Go make your move, girl, I'm not coming home Would things have changed if I could've stayed? Would you have loved me either way? Dressed to the blues, day to day with my collar up Decision sits, so make it quick A breath inhaled from an air so sick I cursed the day that I'd learned of the web you spun (You had your hold 'til bleeding) (Hey, hey) if it was up to me I would've figured you out Way before the year clocked out Oh, I hope you're waiting (Hey, hey) if it was up to me I would've never walked out So until the sun burns out Oh, I hope you're waiting Would we have lived as a child would care? With this vial to drink, I dare (oh where have you been?) Only to cry all alone with your taste on tongue (oh, where have you been?) (Oh, where have you been if it hurts to be forgiving? Bye) Should we try this again with hope? (Bye, bye) Or is it lost? Give up the ghost And should I die all alone, as I knew I would? (Then burn in hell, young sinner) (Hey, hey) if it was up to me I would've figured you out Way before the year clocked out Oh, I hope you're waiting Oh, I hope you're waiting Listen well, will you marry me? (Not now, boy) And are you well in the suffering? You've been the most gracious of hosts You may be invited, girl, but you're not coming in Listen well, will you marry me? (Not now, boy) And are you well in the suffering? You've been the most gracious of hosts I may be invited, girl, but I'm not coming in (Hey, hey) if it was up to me (you had your hope) I would've figured you out Way before the year clocked out Oh, I hope you're waiting (Hey, hey) if it was up to me (you burned it up) I would have never walked out So until the sun burns out Oh, I hope you're waiting Listen well, will you marry me? (Not now, boy) And are you well in the suffering? You've been the most gracious of hosts You may be invited, girl, but you're not coming in Listen well, will you marry me? (Not now, boy) And are you well in the suffering? You've been the most gracious of hosts I may be invited, girl, but I'm not coming in Listen well, will you marry me? (Not now, boy) And are you well in the suffering? You've been the most gracious of hosts You may be invited, girl, but you're not coming in Listen well, will you marry me? (Not now, boy) And are you well in the suffering? You've been the most gracious of hosts I may be invited, girl, but I'm not coming in And you're not coming in

The hurt across your face Your word against mine The rhythm you repeat, The beat a hair behind Were you on my side? You gave your all, but you gave it once A lesson that you thought You could teach it when you want Subtract me from your heart Little take-away girl One step at a time You made us angry All your love could hide But we knew you were afraid We accept, but un-accept We made up, we're breaking up You thought you had enough But maybe you didn't know That this stage holds our show One step at a time, You showed us angry All your love could hide, But we knew you were afraid Misery, I digress No recourse, no remorse Let it be, I confess To every song that brought you back Misery, I digress No recourse, no remorse Let it be, I confess To every song that brought you back

History's made its mark in anger As everybody knows it's what we do It's nothing new The next chords struck are fault and failure And we both know that finger points on cue There's blame for two Do you really want him calling, Newo? Do you really think he's coming back to you? Oh, once the world stops spinning Read that writing on the wall Another, Newo? Is there cushion just enough to break my fall? Oh, don't you cry just lie there baby, in the past 'Cause if you want it all Right now, hide your feathers on the back porch, baby He's coming home, for you've been such a liar Hide your feathers, little back porch lady You're too old enough to cry your sorry eyes out (over the world) Hear me scream outside your window I'm only here to make my peace with you there's something new Oh, it was our time, that day in our lives If I could do things different, what would I choose? Oh, don't you cry, Mama Please don't cry, Mama Oh, don't you cry, no, no Right now, hide your feathers on the back porch, baby He's coming home, for you've been such a liar Hide your feathers, little back porch lady You're too old enough to cry your sorry eyes out No other could wait for a lover to embrace, boy When there's no more room for love You'll sell her off to the sharks No other could wait for a lover to embrace, boy When there's no more room for love You'll sell her off to the sharks Right now, hide your feathers on the back porch, baby He's coming home, for you've been such a liar Right now, hide your feathers on the back porch, baby He's coming home, for you've been such a liar (over the world) Hide your feathers, little back porch lady You're too old enough to cry your sorry eyes out Wait a minute, little back porch lady Wait a minute, little back porch lady, I'm in love Wait a minute, little back porch lady (such a liar) Oh, don't you cry, Mama Oh, don't you cry, no, no Wait a minute, little back porch lady Wait a minute, little back porch lady, I'm in love Wait a minute, little back porch lady (such a liar) Oh, don't you cry, Mama Oh, don't you cry, no, no

The worlds have now learned of the worst yet to come. On the brink of an end, a boy learns to run. How you love, or could you, Mr. Man of the Year? Walking tall with nothing to fear. Don't pass up this chance, Oh, go tear down the walls. No Gods will be watching, no one cares enough at all. These words need now an ending, as they did at the start. But I'll keep on pretending, I won't go. Don't cry no more, boy. You've got the other side of your life, so enjoy. I'll move out the front door, And take out your trash, But I'll no longer be haunting here, I'm not coming back. The world must know my story, So long Amory. Please drive me home one last time. Hail!
