(First draft)

I was in too deep on this ride to get off 

Or so I thought

So I thought 

But Baby I've been moving closer, to the door. 

So I'm not so sure. 

Im not so sure. 

I spent so much time 

Trying to make a dead garden grow,

There's not even grass left to tend anymore. 

Throw up my hands, I need off 

Off this rollercoaster horror ride

You've had me strapped into,

It's time for you to turn me loose.

And I'll exit stage right, out of this fantasy 

I've clung onto 

because the set's burned to the ground 

Only we can save us now. 

I meant what I said, when I swore you my truth,

But how about you?

Baby how 'bout you?

I might be a man of my word, but I'm no man's fool.

So now we are through. 

Guess I'm really through. 

To hold us together, 

I lost so many pieces of myself 

Good thing there's a few still left. 

Throw up my hands, I need off 

Off this rollercoaster horror ride

You've had me strapped into,

It's time for you to turn me loose.

And I'll exit stage right, out of this fantasy 

I've clung onto 

because the set's burned to the ground 

Only we can save us now. 

I guess the only people we had fooled were ourselves (Turn around, there's nothing left!)

Ourselves (Gotta do this for yourself!)

But that won't keep the crash from hurting less. 

I gave it my best. 

Throw up my hands, I need off 

Off this rollercoaster horror ride

You've had me strapped into,

It's time for you to turn me loose.

And I'll exit stage right, out of this fantasy 

I've clung onto 

because the set's burned to the ground 

Only we can save us now.
