  • Well, there's been an accident (Calm down!)
    There's been an accident, breath
    In and out, calm down (In and out, calm down)
    Breath in and out, calm down (In and out, calm down)

    We can't go back, we can't go back
    We can't go back, we can't
    We can't go back, we can't go back
    We can't go back, we can't

    Breath in and out, calm down
    But would you do it again? Again, and count backwards from ten
    (Look, I don't make those mistakes no more)
    You took the path that's where I could see straight through you
    Just concentrate, good try

    (But would you do it again?)
    We can't go back, we can't go back
    We can't go back, we can't
    We can't go back, we can't go back
    We can't go back, we can't

    We can't go back, we can't go back
    We can't go back, we can't
    We can't go back, we can't go
    Back

    (Concentrate, just calculate, cause you
    Concentrate, just calculate, don't you?
    Concentrate then calculate then you
    Then the oxygen just can't be late

    Don't be late, just can't seem late, just
    Concentrate, just count the victim
    Can't seem late, just can't seem late
    Gotta concentrate, just can't be late)

    I try (It's just) I try (It's just)
    I try (It's just) I try (It's just)
    I try (It's just) I try (It's just)
    I try (It's just) I try (It's just)

    I try (It's just) I try (It's just)
    I try (It's just) I try (It's just)
    I tried (It's just) I try (It's just)
    I tried (It's just) I try (It's just)

    I tried (It's just) I tried (It's just)
    I tried! (It's just) I tried! (It's just)
    I TRIED (It's just)

    We can't go back, we can't go back
    We can't go back, we can't
    We can't go back, we can't go back
    We can't go back, we can't

    (It just doesn't feel like)
    We can't go back, we can't go back
    We can't go back, we can't
    (Anything, anything)
    We can't go back, we can't go back
    (Anything, anything)
    We can't go back Writer/s: ADAM BURBANK LAZZARA, EDWARD REYES, FREDERICK PAUL MASCHERINO, MARK O'CONNELL, MATTHEW A. RUBANO

  • Eddie from San Juan, Puerto RicoThis song was actually originally made about the Mr. Fantastic character in the Fantastic Four
  • Dani from Chicago, Iloh and matt rubano's bass playing in the beginning of this song is the best part. just sayin.
  • Dani from Chicago, IlIts about mistakes or past regrets, that you can't go back and change. and basically asking would you do it again if you could? or would you lie to me again? because i can see right throught it.
