Walking On A Wire

I'm still here, still around
You put my picture face down
I count the hours, count aloud
You count me out
And you send your signals (Awoah-oh)
So I send flowers to the door
No I can't walk through anymore (Oh-oh)

Never meant to break your back
Never meant to start a fire
Never meant to wound your head under the water, my love
When you get this call me back
I'll be walking on a wire
Hoping you can take me back in spite
For everything I've done

Put on your favorite dress
I'm such a mess, I drag like a cigarette
You didn't have to look so nice
To get me thinking twice
I've never seen you walk so proudly
I've never seen you sleep so soundly
I'm crying and trying to just quit
Because you just won't do a thing

Never meant to break your back
Never meant to start a fire
Never meant to wound your head under the water, my love
When you get this call me back
I'll be walking on a wire
Hoping you can take me back in spite
For everything I've done

We can't go back, we can't back to where we started
I can't let back, I won't let back
Leave us lonely hearted
I'd rather fight than sleep tonight
Please don't roll your eyes love
I'm not about to let you go

Never meant to break your back
Never meant to start a fire
Never meant to wound your head under the water, my love
When you get this call me back
I'll be walking on a wire
Hoping you can take me back in spite
For everything I've done
(We can't go back, we can't go back)
