Lyric (Don t Go Back To) Rockville
Looking at your watch a third time waiting in the station for a bus
Going to a place that s far so far away and if that s not enough
Going where nobody says hello they don t talk to anybody they don t know
You ll wind up in some factory that s full time filth and nowhere left to go
Walk home to an empty house sit around all by yourself
I know it might sound strange but I believe
You ll be coming back before too long
Don t go back to Rockville
And waste another year
At night I drink myself to sleep and pretend
I don t care if you re not here with me
Cause it s so much easier to handle
All my problems if I m too far out to sea
But something better happen soon
Or it s gonna be too late to bring you back
It s not as though I really need you
If you were here I d only bleed you
But everybody else in town only wants to bring you down and
That s not how it ought to be
I know it might sound strange, but I believe
You ll be coming back before too long
Going to a place that s far so far away and if that s not enough
Going where nobody says hello they don t talk to anybody they don t know

Walk home to an empty house sit around all by yourself
I know it might sound strange but I believe
You ll be coming back before too long
Don t go back to Rockville
