let's go back

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
