I've Been Up These Steps

it was the worst time the first
time it ever went sour things fell
apart too soon i was so let down
i learned then to never go back
i've been once only once, never
reconnect me its better done bet-
ter seen it's sinking so i'll get out
alive it could be the death of me.
there's no reason to hold on i
never fall down because i never
get dizzy it might be bitter or
whatever it's nothing i can't
wash my hands of anyhow, never
reconnect me it's better done
better seen it's sinking so i'll get
out alive it could be the death of
me. it's so useless, so useless the
burn will be there i'm not fooling
myself i won't regret it forget it
i'll never go back i'll never turn
back no. i've been held, held
down too long it won't hold very
long. i've been held, held down
too long. it's nothing that i can't
escape.
