Back Down

It's another indescribable morning
It's to the point where I don't know how I feel
There's a lot of disappointment for me to deal with

I woke up in the middle of a nightmare
But if I could choose, I'd take the dream over being here
There's been something on my mind for nineteen years

Back down, back out
Walk away and don't look back now
See me leaving
I'm gonna get by on my own somehow

I drove my car past the driveway once again
There's a light on in the window begging me to come in
But I know better than to give myself away this easily

Cause she's a little bit angrier this time
She's a little bit hungrier for a sign
And she's just waiting for me to be gone again

Back down, back out
Walk away and don't look back now
See me leaving
I'm gonna get by on my own somehow

You understand you're pitiful
Your life goes on for nothing more
Than all this time to be of use
You use my love, you used your ruse

To take my soul, my heart, my head
And leave me here for dead
You understand you're pitiful
But pity is through

It's so typical for you to call this love
If I can open up your eyes, I've done my job
If I can open up your eyes...

Back down, back out
Walk away and don't look back now
See me leaving
I'm gonna get by on my own somehow
