[Verse 1] This is a story of a Roller coaster child In the city living Where there once was wild, wild Im not the enemy Not defending thee The place where theyre sending me Is such a long way down, down, down [Chorus] You know you turn the other way In a one way town Put your eye to the sky Plant your feet into the ground Whats the word Bright as the sun in your eyes You left a tear in the dust But you never said goodbye [Verse 2] You say that youre quitting But youre still gonna do it Long song skipping on The record in your head, oh, head You say that youre leaving But youre walking in circles Running from a memory That you wanna forget [Chorus] You know you look the other way In a one way town Put your eye to the sky Plant your feet into the ground Well find a world A place where the light never dies You left a tear in the dust But you never said goodbye [Bridge] And its a story of a Roller coaster town Well you can touch the top of the sky But then youre gonna come down, down [Chorus] Ooh, you try to run away In a one way town Put your eye to the sky Plant your feet into the ground You found a world A place where the light never dies You left a tear in the dust But you never said goodbye [Chorus] Cause were the other way In a one way town You left a tear in the dust But you never settled down Another world Bright as the sun in your eyes You left a tear in the dust Run away, goodbye
