She was screaming bloody murder and I'll never forget
How look of her eyes or the taste of her sweat said
Boy you gotta get away, get away while you can
They've been hiding in the darkness and on every road
And there is nothing you can do to it that might save your soul
And they're hiding in the shadows and they're here to control
Cause you can't control yourself
So whoa-oh-oh-oh
This is the way it goes
Cause you find me bound and shameless in another's arms
And go-oh-oh-oh
I'm singing it straight to you
Cause I'm leaving you honest
And sealed with a promise
We can't all be Gods and Superstars
And superficial cigarette burns are storming the gates
Leaving lovely little letters telling me how they taste
And you can hear them singing chorus after chorus that fate
Is going to take us to the top
She's got the x's on her if you watch her move to the beat
In every avenue with everybody she meets
She knows the rhythm of the city she can feel it in the streets
She would rather feel it drown
So whoa-oh-oh-oh
Whoa-oh-oh-oh
So whoa-oh-oh-oh
This is the way it goes
Cause you find me bound and shameless in another's arms
And go-oh-oh-oh
I'm singing it straight to you
Cause I'm leaving you honest
And sealed with a promise
We can't all be gods and superstars
So if there's gonna be a fight
I'm saying baby fight fair
This doesn't have to be the hour, we lose hours
And if it's really gotta end I'm saying let it end here
It shouldn't be that hard to be
Just her and me
So whoa-oh-oh-oh
Whoa-oh-oh-oh
So whoa-oh-oh-oh
This is the way it goes
Cause you find me bound and shameless in another's arms
And go-oh-oh-oh
I'm singing it straight to you
Cause I'm leaving you honest
And sealed with a promise
We can't all be god and superstars
