lyrics

(instrumental, threatening)

We had one song and it was somebody else's idea
It paid for four houses and I do not live in any
I left in the second year and did not say why
(say why, say why)
Twelve years later and they are still guessing

They call it a mystery (a mystery)
It is not a mystery, it is a decision

Sweet damage
(damage, damage)
You cannot ruin what you already left
Sweet damage
I took the exit and I took my name

The others still perform it, four nights a week
Same key, same jacket, same joke before the bridge
I hear it in a shop sometimes and I feel nothing
(feel nothing)
That nothing cost me everything and it was worth it

They ask if I regret it.
I have been asked that in every interview for twelve years.
Nobody has ever asked what it was like before I left.
(BASS DROPS BACK IN, HEAVIEST)

Sweet damage
(damage, damage)
You cannot ruin what you already left
Sweet damage
I took the exit and I took my name

(sweet damage.)
