Fear rises, terrorizes all the lonely places
Old lovers buried deep and without faces
But this time - riding far away
She's not the one who stole my innocence away

She ain't gonna go - o
She ain't gonna go
I know her too well and I know
She ain't gonna go

Take this, run with it and set all the old traps
Another restless night without spirit, and all of that
Just anger, fuel, and fear, wishing she was here
And the knowledge that to hurt her is to hurt all that you care

Rattle trap mind from knowing I'm not crazy
in a city that tries to make me -- lazy
But someone somewhere - had to know
I needed a true lover, one who ain't gonna go
