lyrics

I took a solo ride on a see saw
I got nowhere to go but down
I’m sitting here just killing time
Hoping that you’ll come around
You come around

Don’t you feel it like I do
You’re making up the rules
As you go along

I can’t play your crazy game
It’s me you always blame
When you get it wrong

Oh I won’t be the keeper of this sorrow anymore
Gonna put it in the box and shut that mighty door
No I won't be the owner of this anger and despair
Gonna throw it in the wind and leave it everywhere

I took a solo ride on a see saw
I got nowhere to go but down
I’m sitting here just killing time
Hoping that you’ll come around
You come around

I won’t trade your venom for your poison anymore
Gonna draw it from my blood and spit it on the floor
Won’t beg you to forgive me l ain’t done nothin’ wrong
Gonna cast you out onto the street where you belong

I took a solo ride on a see saw
I got nowhere to go but down
I’m sitting here just killing time
Hoping that you’ll come around
You come around
