Is this what you wanted? | |
Did you even think twice? | |
Didn't they tell you that anything that feels this good | |
Comes with a price | |
It gave you such a rush | |
Now you think you've had enough | |
It's not that easy to walk away | |
This is the hard stuff | |
You can't get the genie back in the bottle | |
You can't get the genie back in the bottle | |
You can't get the genie back in the bottle | |
You can't get the genie back in the bottle | |
And everything matters, everything matters | |
Every little thing you do | |
That smoldering tingle under your skin | |
That sweet, delicious, but not-so-original sin | |
And when the world becomes too little or too much | |
The shadow mind contrives | |
The triumph and the tragedy that we invite into our lives | |
And Adam glanced back at the tree | |
As he was leaving | |
Said, “Baby, that's the price we pay | |
Knowing is grieving” | |
You can't get the genie back in the bottle | |
You can't get the genie back in the bottle | |
You can't get the genie back in the bottle | |
You can't get the genie back in the bottle | |
And everything matters, everything matters | |
Everything you say, everything you do | |
And the past comes back to smack you around | |
For all the things you thought you got for free | |
For the arrogance to think that you could somehow | |
Defy the laws of gravity | |
These are lessons in humility | |
Penitence for past offenses | |
Consequences, consequences | |
You can't get the genie back in the bottle | |
You can't get the genie back in the bottle | |
You can't get the genie back in the bottle | |
You can't get the genie back in the bottle |
