Two Steps Back

I see the end of every book I've ever read
I see the price of everything I've ever said
I feel the break in every rule I've ever bent
And I hear the sound of all the voices in my head

Fallin' away, takin' a fall
Can't even find no peace at all
Will we ever change, no takin' it back?
One step forward, two steps back

Fallin' away, takin' a fall
I can't even find no peace at all
Will we ever change, no takin' it back?
One step forward, two steps back in a two step

I've seen the fallin' buildings on the TV hotel bed
I've seen Mama's babies risk their lives for a wavin' flag
And I heard the Dixie Chickens run their mouths in a foreign land
And then try to take back everything they ever said

Fallin' away, takin' a fall
Can't even find no peace at all
Will we ever change, no takin' it back?
One step forward, two steps back

Fallin' away, takin' a fall
I can't even find no peace at all
Will we ever change, no takin' it back?
One step forward, two steps back in a two step

Will somebody please take this away?
You better watch everything that you say
Because it's gonna come back to you

I see the end of every book we've ever read
I see the price of everything you've ever said
And I feel the break in every rule we've ever bent
I still hear the sound of all the voices in my head

Fallin' away, takin' a fall
Can't even find no peace at all
Will we ever change, no takin' it back?
One step forward, two steps back

Fallin' away, takin' a fall
I can't even find no peace at all
Will we ever change, no takin' it back?
One step forward, two steps back in a two step

We're fallin' two steps back
We're fallin' two steps back
We're fallin' two steps back
Back
