My friends never liked you but I let it slide

Convinced myself they didn't know you

But once they did they'd get along fine

You could make a living out of killing your time

And I'd never say it out loud

But I think you are bringing me down

'Cause you hated watching me shine

And when I first found you

Curled up on the floor

You were begging for something

Just begging for more

I picked up the pieces

And opened my door

You bought a one way ticket to nowhere

And I stayed 'cause you asked me to be there

Now I'm by myself and your well designed Hell

And I'm trying to get out, it's not going so well, yeah

I changed through all your tantrums and bad days

Almost forgot my own damn name

I hope you found peace in the end

And I hope I never talk to you again

You come to my shows just to talk through my set

Offer me a ride home when you'd already left

You never had any dreams of your own

So you built me a prison and called it a home

And I know it's my fault, yeah, I know it's on me

How could I be so stupid, yet I didn't see

But I thought that's the way, how it's supposed to be

'Cause I saw that they showed, I saw that you showed me

A one way ticket to nowhere

And I stayed 'cause you asked me to be there

Now I'm by myself and your well designed Hell

And I'm trying to get out, it's not going so well, yeah

I changed through all your tantrums and bad days

Almost forgot my own damn name

I hope you found peace in the end

And I hope I never talk to you again

I hope I never talk to you again

You bought a one way ticket to nowhere

A one way ticket to nowhere

A one way ticket to nowhere

A one way ticket to nowhere

And you can say you did the right thing and I'll play along (A one way ticket to nowhere)

You're now with it, to let me reach in, you say I done wrong (And I stayed 'cause you asked me to be there)

You never changed, never learned to take the blame (Now I'm by myself and your well designed Hell)

So I'm taking my pride and I'm walkin', I'm walkin' away (And I'm trying to get out, it's not going so well, yeah)

I'm walkin', I'm walkin' away (I changed through all your tantrums and bad days)

I'm walkin', I'm walkin' away (Almost forgot my own damn name)

Away-ay (I hope you found peace in the end, and I hope I never talk to you again)

You bought a one way ticket to nowhere

And I stayed 'cause you asked me to be there

Now I'm by myself and your well designed Hell

And I'm trying to get out, it's not going so, going so well
