This is a story of a Roller coaster child In the city living Where there once was wild (wild) I'm not the enemy Not defending thee The place where they're sending me Is such a long way down, down, down You know you turn the other way In a one way town Put your eye to the sky Plant your feet into the ground What's the word Bright as the sun in your eyes You left a tear in the dust But you never said goodbye You say that you're quitting But you're still gonna do it Long song skipping on The record in your head (head) You say that you're leaving But you're walking in circles Running from a memory That you wanna forget You know you look the other way In a one way town Put your eye to the sky Plant your feet into the ground We'll find a world A place where the light never dies You left a tear in the dust But you never said goodbye And it's a story of a Roller coaster town Well you can touch the top of the sky But then you're gonna come down, down Oo, 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 Cause we're 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
