Once upon a time I was somebody else In another life I saw myself Way back then, back when I was new Somewhere down the line I started to slip Years gone by, biting my lip All the while, all this time I knew Now you're on your own, one for the pages Over the hill and through the ages Does my heaven burn like hell on you? Out beneath the cracks they're coming in waves Rolling like an earthquake under the pavement Where are they now, tell me Mr. True You got a lot of nerve, nerve Now show a little backbone why don't you? I'm looking for some back and forth with you Are you feeling the same as I do? Now and now and then I'm looking for some back and forth with you Are you feeling the same as I do? Down and out Holding my breath, I waited and waited How'd this simple life get so complicated? Shoes to fill, secrets to spill down you Deer in the headlight, spoke in the wheel You all pretend, I need for real Taking it back, all my IOUs You got a lot of nerve, nerve Now show a little backbone why don't you? I'm looking for some back and forth with you Are you feeling the same as I do? Now and now and then I'm looking for some back and forth with you Are you feeling the same as I do? Down and out You got a lot of nerve, nerve, nerve, nerve Now show a little backbone why don't you? I'm looking for some back and forth with you Are you feeling the same as I do? Now and now and then I'm looking for some back and forth with you Are you feeling the same as I do? Now and now and then I'm lookin' for some back and forth with you Are you feelin' the same as I do down and out
