I see the end of every book I've ever read
I see the price of everything I've ever said
I feel the break in every rule I've ever bent
And I hear the sound of all the voices in my head
Falling away, taking a fall
Can't even find no peace at all
Will we ever change no taking it back
One step forward two steps back
Falling away, taking a fall
I can't even find no peace at all
Will we ever change no taking it back
One step forward two steps back in a two step
I've seen the falling buildings on the tv hotel bed
I've seen mama's babies risk their lives for a waving flag
And I heard the dixie chickens run their mouths in a foreign land
And then try to take back everything they ever said
Falling away, taking a fall
Can't even find no peace at all
Will we ever change no taking it back
One step forward two steps back
Falling away, taking a fall
I can't even find no peace at all
Will we ever change no taking it back
One step forward two steps back in a two step
Will somebody please take this away?
You better watch everything that you say
Because it's gonna come back to you
[Solo]
I see the end of every book we've ever read
I see the price of everything you've ever said
I feel the break in every rule we've ever bent
And I still hear the sound of all the voices in my head
Falling away, taking a fall
Can't even find no peace at all
Will we ever change no taking it back
One step forward two steps back
Falling away, taking a fall
I can't even find no peace at all
Will we ever change no taking it back
One step forward two steps back in a two step
We're falling two steps back
We're falling two steps back
We're falling two steps back
