The more I stay, the less I go
We're toe to toe but I'm hanging on the wire
Stumbled down the same road before
Say I'm leaving but I'm only playing liar
'Cause when you're looking like
A movie star in a worn out coat
Yeah, throw away my mind
It happens all the time
I stay when the ecstasy is far away
And I pray that it's coming 'round again
And you say it
But I wish it wasn't true
I knew someday that one would have to choose
I just thought we had more to lose
The TV's on but I don't know
My tears are streaming like our favorite show tonight, tonight
Memories fade like denim jeans
I try to chase when you're running through my mind
'Cause god you're looking like
You're looking like
A movie star in a worn out coat
So I throw away my mind
It happens all the time
Oh, I stay when the ecstasy is far away
And I pray that it's coming 'round again
And you say it
But I wish it wasn't true
I knew someday that one would have to choose
I just thought we had more to lose
Na na na na na
Na na na na na
Yeah you're looking like a movie star in a worn out coat
So I throw away my pride
It happens all the time
God, it happens all the time
Oh, I stay when the ecstasy is far away
And I pray that it's coming 'round again
But it don't, baby
And you say it
But I wish it wasn't true
I knew someday that one would have to choose
I knew someday you'd do what I couldn't do
I just thought we had more to lose
