Lyrics

Switchback [2001]

[Intro]

Ah-ah, ah-ah (ain't okay, I've got no way to switch back)

Ah-ah, ah-ah (ain't okay, I've got no way to) switch back

(Go! [echoing])

(Go! [echoing])

I've got no way to switch back

Switchback

[Verse 1]

How is it that it came to be

That everybody's gone but me?

I'm left to face the end alone

(I've got no way to switch back)

I stare into eternity

To the echoes of your trickery

Telling me what I already should have known

(I've got no way to switch back)

[Pre-Chorus]

And everybody foolin' with their rick rack

And it's about time we put them on their back

Meaner and leaner, we take up the slack

Klayton and Celldweller with no way to switch back

[Chorus]

(Go! [echoing]) Switchback

(Go! [echoing]) Switchback

Wait!

How can it be too late? (Go! [echoing])

I'll never be the same

Won't be the same again (be the same again) (Go! [echoing])

Switchback

[Verse 2]

Who is it that I have become

Now that it's getting wearisome?

Failure's waiting for me to decline, and one

Last shadow from the fading light

As I head into the endless night

Fear and dreaming both intertwined

(Switchba-a-ack)

[Pre-Chorus]

And everybody foolin' with their rick rack

And it's about time we put them on their back

Meaner and leaner, we take up the slack

Klayton and Celldweller with no way to switch back

[Chorus]

Switchback

(Go! [echoing]) Switchback

(Go! [echoing]) Switchback

Wait!

How can it be too late? (Go! [echoing])

Cause I don't want to play

With such a price to pay

(There's no way to, there's no way to, there's no way to) Switchback

Chained

To what I can't reclaim (Go! [echoing])

I'll never be the same

Won't be the same again (be the same again) (Go! [echoing])

Switchback

[Bridge]

And everybody foolin' with their rick rack

And it's about time we put them on their back

Meaner and leaner, we take up the slack

Klayton and Celldweller with no way to switch back

Cuttin' you up with razor blade

Chokin' you on them words you say

Hittin' your rip-rap on you made

And the Celldweller is unafraid, aaargh!

[Chorus]

Switchback

(Go! [echoing])

Switchback

(Go! [echoing])

Switchback

Wait!

How can it be too late? (Go! [echoing])

Cause I don't want to play

With such a price to pay

(There's no way to, there's no way to, there's no way to) Switchback

Chained  (Go! [echoing])

To what I can't reclaim

I'll never be the same

Won't be the same again (be the same again)

Switchback
