I see the end of every book I've ever read,
I see the price of everything I ever said,
I feel the break in every rule I've ever bent,
And I hear the sound of all the voices in my head,

[Chorus: x2]
Fallin' away, takin' the fall,
Can't even find no peace at all,
Will we ever change, no taking it back,
One Step forward, Two steps back

I've seen the falling buildings on the TV hotel bed,
I've seen mother's babies risk their lives for a waving flag,
And I heard the Dixie Chickens run their mouths in a foreign land,
And then try to take back everything they ever said,

[Chorus: x2]

Will somebody please take this away,
You better watch everything that you say,
Because it's gonna come back to you

I see the end of every book I've ever read,
I see the price of everything I ever said,
I feel the break in every rule I've ever bent,
And I hear the sound of all the voices in my head,


[Chorus: x2]

[Repeat: x4]
Fallin' 2 steps back
