Let's Go Back

(album: Cabaret - 2012)

Baby it's a game that everybody plays
Goes on and on for days and days
Everybody stares into the screen
But no one really cares what anything means
Soon as you bawl, start to cry
Don't drink from the tears that leave your eyes
Everybody wants to try and fly
But you lose your mind if you get too high

Let's go back, let's wait and see
It's the same old chords with a different melody
Let's hold on, let's lose control
One last time before we get too old

Baby it's a game that no one ever wins
As honest truth as a camera lens
If pictures tell a thousand words
I can't remember a thing I've heard
Slow and steady no I guess I'm not
But that don't mean I'm a lousy shot
My aim is sharp and my hands are fast
The bullet breaks the mirror glass

Let's go back, let's wait and see
It's the same old chords with a different melody
Let's hold on, let's lose control
One last time before we get too old

Let's do it all again, let's do it all the same
Let's go back to the start, let's ride until the end
Baby it's a game but that don't mean
You're leaving here with anything
