Your world is falling down on top of you
But you don't seem to know it
Your friends are down to just a precious few
And that alone should show itYou tell outrageous lies
You swim against the flow
You talk to empty skies
And then you turn and goWell babe you're going the wrong way on a one way street
You don't know what you're doin'
It's your own fate that your likely to meet
You're on the road to ruinYou told me nothing ever gets you down
But baby that was madness
Now that your smile has turned into a frown
Your wrapped in total sadnessYou wander in the rain
You seek elusive bliss
You think the world's insane
But I can tell you this:You're going the wrong way on a one way street
You don't know what you're doin'
It's your own fate that your likely to meet
You're on the road to ruinYou haven't reached the point of no return
But it keeps getting nearer
Before you finally crash and burn
Maybe you'll see things clearerYou always chase rainbows
You find no pot of gold
You follow highs with lows
And that just makes you oldBecause you're going the wrong way on a one way street
You don't know what you're doin'
It's your own fate that your likely to meet
You're on the road to ruin
