Once they've got you where they want you they don't wanna know

I could leave or I could stay

It doesn't make a bit of difference any more anyway
G A
With each and every circumstance

I lose knowledge and gain innocence

You won't find me grieving

There's no regret in leaving

When I had to come here

Like I know I had to come here

I can see I had to come here

For my view to be clear

For my view to be clear
