Backwards Songtext / Lyric

Take me backwards, turn me around.

Cannot find my balance on the ground

This world's too heavy

For a feather falling quickly.



And I wrote you a story

But I'm afraid of how it ends

And all my friends are doing well

And I'm still on the mend.



I'm go in lay back down

Hope the wind takes me around.

I gonna find some courage in this town



Cause nobody's going to save

Somebody who won't change

I try to be brave.






And nothing's coming easy, and all at once

I feel a little queasy.

Oh, but if your love's my remedy

Won't you please come and be with me?



It's not like there's much better

Nobody's grass is as green as mine.

I can't say that I'm satisfied

Three thousand miles from your kiss goodbye.



I'm go in lay back down

Hope the wind takes me around.

I gonna find some courage in this town

And everybody's afraid

Cause chances come from change

And everybody's afraid

Cause chances come from breaking

The chances are you're breaking open

I'm go in lay back down

Hope the wind takes me around.

I gonna find some courage in this town

Cause nobody's going to save

Somebody who won't change

It's time to be brave.
