[Verse 1]
All our dreams in smithereens
I ripped them all to shreds it seems
The end was like a battle scene
It was raining ashes, raining ashes
Wasn't fair to leave you there
But I couldn't bear to stay
And hear the heartbreak in your voice
And so I guess I panicked, guess I panicked
I, I don't know how to say goodbye

[Chorus]
Sabotage, the only way out
Sabotage, had to burn it to the ground
Sabotage, I'm sorry, I'm sorry
Had a match in my pocket
And so I lit it and dropped it
Oh, woah-oh, woah-oh, woah-oh

[Verse 2]
Been people pleasin' all my life
I'd set myself on fire to keep somebody warm
Until I'm only ashes, only ashes
Had to pour it down the drain, burn the bridge
Derail the train to keep from coming back again
Do something drastic, something drastic
I, I don't know how to say goodbye
[Chorus]
Sabotage, the only way out
Sabotage, had to burn it to the ground
Sabotage, I'm sorry, I'm sorry
Had a match in my pocket
So I lit it and dropped it
Sabotage
Oh, woah-oh, woah-oh, woah-oh

[Bridge]
It's like running away in slow motion
From a grenade that's explodin'
And you didn't even see it
No, you didn't even see it coming, oh
Sabotage, the only way out
Had to burn it to the ground

[Outro]
Sabotage, I'm sorry
Had a match in my pocket
So I lit it and dropped it
Sabotage
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
I, I don't know how to say goodbye
