Take It Back
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Red lights and it’s a jungle out there
So hard, you can’t take it
All of the warriors go into battle
Taking you for the ride
You’re no fighter
But you fake it
That night, when you fought me away
You said: Someday, we could make it
All the same, we never knew
‘Cause we want what we want
When we want what we want
So don’t take it back
If that’s what you mean
Don’t make me think you care any longer
You got needs, and I have mine
It’s a jungle out there
And we’re right to fight
Leaving only memories of us
Breathing in the other’s air
Don’t take it back if that’s what you mean
It’s a jungle out there
I want out, but still your body blocks the door
Is it me that you need, or the one
That you knew when we were rolling on the floor
No one cries for who they were
They’re just songs from the past
They belong to the past
So don’t take it back
If that’s what you mean
Don’t make me think you care any longer
You got needs, and I have mine
It’s a jungle out there
And we’re right to fight
Leaving only memories of us
Breathing in the other’s air
Don’t take it back if that’s what you mean
It’s a jungle out there
All the same, we never knew
‘Cause we want what we want
When we want what we want
So don’t take it back
If that’s what you mean
Don’t make me think you care any longer
You got needs, and I have mine
It’s a jungle out there
And we’re right to fight
Leaving only memories of us
Breathing in the other’s air
Don’t take it back if that’s what you mean
It’s a jungle out there
So don’t take it back
Don’t take it back
So don’t take it back
Don’t take it back
La da da da
Don’t take it back
Don’t take it back
Don’t take it back
La da da da, da da
