Lyrics
Verse:
How did it get so far away
Looking back I cannot say
When did it get to be so wrong
Losing touch at every turn
Chorus:
But you will never see me
Lay down on the turn pike
Running through the barbed wire
Just to say goodbye
I?m on a different road now
I don?t know why but somehow
It feels like I should get out of here
Verse:
How did it get beyond my sight
Thought I saw the need to fight
I always thought I had it made
When all I?ve made are mistakes
Chorus:
But you will never see me
Lined up in the crossfire
Buried in the mudslide
Just to say goodbye
I?m on a different road now
I don?t know why but somehow
It feels like I should get out of here
Bridge:
A million to one
One shot at the sun
I always hoped we could fly
But our chances are gone
We stared at the sun too long
Verse:
How did it get so far away
Looking back I?ve got to say
We never meant to get this wrong
But the same old never makes it far
Chorus:
Someday you will see me
Stand up on the turnpike
Riding down the mudslide
A fire in my eye
I?ve gone a different road now
Had to give my farewell
I have never been here before
I?ll always have my strength now
No matter how I breakdown
You can?t take that away from me
You can?t take that away?
