Going One Way (Liars Edge)

Hey don’t you want to know  ? 
Want to know what I’m doing ? 
Hey don’t you want to know ? 
Now I’m going one way 
I wonder what went wrong 
What it is we were missing 
And I wonder where you are 
Now I’m going one way 

If you’re alone and sad then I’m sorry   
You must be feeling like I do 
And like a shadow lost in the night 
I see you walk away - I see you walk away 
And when you walk away - When you walk away 

I’ll try and carry on   
I’ll try and keep it together 
Hey I’ll try and carry on 
But I guess I’m going one way 
I tried to settle down   
I tried to keep it together 
Now I know I’ll be out tonight 
Cos I guess I’m going one way 

So many dreams are now just illusions   
So little time left to tell you 
Too many questions never addressed 
I see you walk away - I see you walk away   
I see you you walk away - And when you walk away 
When you walk away 
Oh when you walk away 

I wouldn’t want to lie and have to say "Sorry" 
I wouldn’t want to ask and hear you say "No" 
I haven’t got the will to say “Don’t worry” 
But I haven’t got the guts to say “Just go” 
Nothings ever said that’s said just for nothing 
But nothing's what’s we said for far too long 
So what is left now to say now to each other ? 
Another lie ? 
Another lie ? 
Another lie ? 
Another lie is all wrong 

I hope there comes a day you find a hero 
I hope you find a man who’ll crown you queen 
But I am on a one-way trip to nowhere 
And I’ll never be the man I might have been 
I cry for all the things that I’ve forsaken 
I weep for all the things that I’ve done wrong 
Now I’m the man that time has overtaken 
I don't belong 
I don't belong 
I don't belong 
I don't belong here anymore
