  • Maybe you're forgetting that you're the one who called it quits
    Save your story I already know the end
    Well, I should've know that you'd come crawling back
    It's the only thing to do when you lose the best thing you ever had had

    I ain't you're boomerang
    I ain't the kind of thing
    That you can throw away and watch it
    Circle back around
    Don't know what game you're playing
    Begging me to stay when you sent me on my way
    And now you're finding out
    I'm an arrow straight in to the sun
    Buck shot from a goodbye gun
    A road that only runs one way
    Anything but a boomerang

    Now you're second guessing
    What do you expect from me
    Pick up where we left off
    Go back to what we used to be
    You can look me in the eyes and keep apologizing
    But I, oh I
    I ain't you're boomerang
    I ain't the kind of thing
    That you can throw away and watch it
    Circle back around
    Don't know what game you're playing
    Begging me to stay when you sent me on my way
    And now you're finding out
    I'm an arrow straight in to the sun
    Buck shot from a goodbye gun
    A road that only runs one way
    Anything but a boomerang

    I'm a train burning down the tracks
    I'm a phoenix rising from the ashes
    Gone baby gone baby gone
    There's nothing left
    There's nothing left to say
    I ain't your boomerang
    I ain't the kind of thing
    That you can throw away and watch it
    Circle back around
    Don't know what game you're playing
    Begging me to stay when you sent me on my way
    And now you're finding out
    I'm an arrow straight in to the sun
    Buck shot from a goodbye gun
    A road that only runs one way
    Anything but a boomerang
    I'm anything but a boomerang
    Anything but a boomerang, hey hey,
    I'm anything but a boomerang
