Lyrics
Back 2 Good
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.
It's nothing, it's so normal you
just stand there I could say so much
but I don't go there cuz I don't want to
I was thinking if you were lonely
maybe we could leave here and no one would know
at least not to the point that we would think so
everyone here, knows everyone here is thinking about
somebody else
it's best if we all keep it under our heads
I couldn't tell, if anyone here was feeling the way I do
but I'm lonely now, and I don't know how
to get it back to good
this don't mean that, you own me
this ain't no good, in fact it's phony as hell
but things worked out just like you wanted too
if you see me out you don't know me
try to turn your head, try to give me some room
to figure out just what I'm going to do
and everyone here, hates everyone here for doing just like
they do
it's best if we all keep this quiet instead
and I couldn't tell, why everyone here was doing me like
they do
but I'm sorry now, and I don't know how
to get it back to good
everyone here, is wondering what it's like to be with
somebody else
everyone here's to blame, everyone here
gets caught up in the pleasure of the pain, everyone hides
shades of shame, but looking inside we're the same, we're
the same
and we're all grown now, but we don't know how
to get it back to good
everyone here, knows everyone here is thinking 'bout
somebody else
it's best if we all keep this under our heads
I couldn't tell, if anyone here was feeling the way I do
but it's over now, and I don't know how, it's over now
there's no getting back to good
