Don`t Go Back To Rockville lyrics

Artist  : R.E.M. 
Song : Don`t Go Back To Rockville
 


Looking at your watch a third time waiting in the
station for a bus
Going to a place that's far
so far away and if that's not enough
Going
where nobody says hello they don't talk to
anybody they don't know
You'll wind up in some
factory that's full time filth and nowhere left
to go
Walk home to an empty house sit around
all by yourself
I know it might sound strange
but I believe
You'll be coming back before too
long

Don't go back to Rockville
And
waste another year

At night I drink myself
to sleep and pretend
I don't care if you're
not here with me
'Cause it's so much easier to
handle
All my problems if I'm too far out to
sea
But something better happen soon
Or
it's gonna be too late to bring you
back

It's not as though I really need
you
If you were here I'd only bleed you
But
everybody else in town only wants to bring you
down and
That's not how it ought to be
I
know it might sound strange, but I
believe
You'll be coming back before too long
