Ain't No Lookin' Back Lyrics

Jewel

* All of your ghosts
* Litter the horizon
* Glittering carcasses
* I guess that makes twice then
* Just like your daisies
* And all of your buffalo
* You don't worry
* The children will mend what you tore
* You dress yourself in sharkbites
* You kill yourself in spoonfuls
* You damn all the beehives
* You make love to potholes
* Your attention is a junkie
* It has a wandering vien
* And all of your thoughtlessness
* Is dried up rain
* Ain't no lookin' back, now---Is there kid?
* You always look to the west
* You throw caution to the wind
* You're on a one way track
* But you cant buy caution back---Can you kid?
* You killed a man
* Because you made him borrow
* One suicide is made up
* Of ten thousand tiny sorrows
* America's great
* Its the land of the free
* We're so independent
* That we forgot how to breathe
* Ain't no lookin' back, now---Is there kid?
* You always look to the west
* You throw caution to the wind
* You're on a one way track
* But you cant buy caution back---Can you kid?
* Show me one hero
* Who ain't afraid of fear
* Show me one adult
* That knows how to hear
* "We are the future"
* At least thats what you said
* I wanna know:
* Who's the hope of today?
* There's no lookin' back now for you---Is there kid?
* All of your ghosts
* Litter the horizon
* Glittering carcasses
* I guess that makes twice then
* Just like your daisies
* And all of your buffalo
* You don't worry
* The children will mend what you tore
