I've seen the sky so gray that I could't cry
Hanging over my head like the middle of darkest night
Been down so low that I didn't even wanna to try
But I am getting wise

Tested love so bitter like a lemon rind
I've lived so crazy like traffic running through my mind
Been to hell and back baby just to pass the time
Show no mercy on me
It's time to break free

I, I'm never goin' that way again
I learned a thing or two where I've been
Oooo, Oooo, never going that, going that way again

This monkey's digging in deep trying to stay on my back
He's reaching into this bag of tricks trying to know me off track
But no little chitter chatter's gonna do me in like that
I'll leave it all behind
Oh, and say bye bye

I, I'm never goin' that way again...

Show no mercy on me
It's time to break free
Never goin', never goin' that way again
Never goin', never goin' that way again...
