No Looking Back
Mad Marge and the Stonecutters Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
If I don't do it then you'll know I'm just talk talk talk.
Gonna move along
'Cause I've been standing here for far too long.
I'm feelin' it, I feel it creepin' up like a villan.
I know that I want it but it's bound to attack.
Desire it's growing but I just keep on going
I'm feelin' weak weak weak in the knees.
A nervouse disease. Terrifide. Can'tcha see.
I make the choice to stand here unmoved
And I push forward, I got something to prove
I'm feelin' it, I feel it creepin' up like a villan.
I know that I want it but it's bound to attack.
Desire, it's growing but I just keep on going
'Cause I know if I stop then there's no looking back.
Do you think I can make it out alive?
Make it out alive...
I'm feelin' it, I feel it creepin' up like a villan.
I know that I want it but it's bound to attack.
Desire, it's growing but I just keep on going
'Cause I know if I stop then there's no looking back.
