Maybe this time
Maybe this time, I'll get it right now
Should we shake hands?
Stick to our plans of
Hands off my disease
'Cause now you've got me where you want me

And it won't get me down
It won't get me down
It won't get me down
But you better go now
And I won't move my face
And you won't leave a trace
In this weird goodbye today

We're both escapists holding to this
Useless mess of raging emotion
Tongue-tied, I whisper your name
And you recognize what motivates
You're self sanctified

It’s so sad we act like we're fine
When we're really not
Really not fine
And we’ll end where we began so
Come on over baby to relive the edge
Of these nights and golden fields
Where you burn off my resistant shields
And it won't get me down
And it won't get me down
It won't get me down
But you better go now
And I won't move my face
And you won't leave a trace
In this weird goodbye today

I'm not any different
Underneath the street-lamp damp
Stamped into the pavement
I was thinking, thinking that
I heard that you were calling
Heard that you would fall for me
Heard that you were calling
Heard that you would call for me

And it won't get me down
And it won't get me down
It won't get me down
You better go now
And I won't move my face and
And you won't leave a trace
In this weird goodbye today
