I've been here, in this place I've been sung, in this space Like a ghost that's been missing time Silent words, in my mouth Now they won't, scream out And I leave, my own shadow behind In my heart and out of my mind I'll go but I won't go quietly Go down but I'll go down fighting Don't know where, don't know what But I can't go back, back to the way I was I'll show who I am from the inside Gonna take my walk on the wild side Don't know where, don't know what But I can't go back, back to the way I was Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh Oh-oh, oh-oh No I can't go back, back to the way I was I'm the leaf, I'm the seed That's been waiting for spring I'm out there reinventing yourself We might fall, we might rise We are all butterflies Breaking free from our jars on the shelf Finding out the truth for ourselves I'll go but I won't go quietly Go down but I'll go down fighting Don't know where, don't know what But I can't go back, back to the way I was I'll show who I am from the inside Gonna take my walk on the wild side Don't know where, don't know what But I can't go back, back to the way I was Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh Oh-oh, oh-oh No I can't go back, back to the way I was I'll go but I won't go quietly Go down but I'll go down fighting Could be hurt, could be loved But I can't go back, back to the way I was I'll go but I won't go quietly Go down but I'll go down fighting Don't know where, don't know what But I can't go back, back to the way I was I'll show who I am from the inside Gonna take my walk on the wild side Don't know where, don't know what But I can't go back, back to the way I was Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh Oh-oh, oh-oh No I can't go back, back to the way I was
