Swore I'd Never Go Back

Swore I'd never go back to the desert
Every time I do I get hurt
All the drinks and the drugs
All the things that I've done
Haunt and hunting my mind from its slumber
All my positive thoughts are out numbered
All the paths have been paved
And they flood when it rains

Swore I'd never go back up that hill again
Swore I'd never pick up for the millionth time
Son of a gun
Million and one
Oh so cunning, oh, oh so baffling
How could this snowball into an avalanche
All the tricks of the trade
You learn 'long the way

Swore I'd never go back once I left her
It's only chaos when we're both together
A fight to the death
Violence and sex
Crawling back into bed with my anger
Then waking up next to a stranger
But I can't help but be glad
If there's still some in the bag

Swore I'd never go back on my word again
Swore I'd never step foot back in the dirt and then
That's just what I do
'Cause that's what I do
Running back, right back to her again
Needle in the eye of a hurricane
And when I've had enough
I'll call my own bluff

But I'm through just waiting 'round for you to budge
This town ain't big enough for the two of us

Swore I'd never go back up that hill again
Swore I'd never pick up for the millionth time
'Cause where's all this fun amounting
Million and one and counting
Oh so cunning, oh, oh so baffling
How could this snowball into an avalanche
It's a bottomless pit
Still I can't resist

But I'm through just waiting 'round for you to budge
This town ain't big enough for the two of us
