I see the end of every book I've ever read I see the price of everything I've ever said I feel the break in every rule I've ever bent And I hear the sound of all the voices in my head Fallin' away, takin' a fall Can't even find no peace at all Will we ever change, no takin' it back? One step forward, two steps back Fallin' away, takin' a fall I can't even find no peace at all Will we ever change, no takin' it back? One step forward, two steps back in a two step I've seen the fallin' buildings on the TV hotel bed I've seen Mama's babies risk their lives for a wavin' flag And I heard the Dixie Chickens run their mouths in a foreign land And then try to take back everything they ever said Fallin' away, takin' a fall Can't even find no peace at all Will we ever change, no takin' it back? One step forward, two steps back Fallin' away, takin' a fall I can't even find no peace at all Will we ever change, no takin' it back? One step forward, two steps back in a two step Will somebody please take this away? You better watch everything that you say Because it's gonna come back to you I see the end of every book we've ever read I see the price of everything you've ever said And I feel the break in every rule we've ever bent I still hear the sound of all the voices in my head Fallin' away, takin' a fall Can't even find no peace at all Will we ever change, no takin' it back? One step forward, two steps back Fallin' away, takin' a fall I can't even find no peace at all Will we ever change, no takin' it back? One step forward, two steps back in a two step We're fallin' two steps back We're fallin' two steps back We're fallin' two steps back Back
