lyrics

Backwards

Well, I'm a backwards sort of person
With a backwards state of mind

Sucks for me, but that's okay because
I'm used to being left behind

I try but I can't keep up with the hype most every day
So when I just sit back and think about it
There's just a few things that I could say

You can live your life for someone else
Or live your life all for yourself
Because no matter what, it's just you
At the end of the day

When you're a backwards sort of person
In a backwards sort of time

Who can you really turn to
If you don't want to get left behind?

Well everyone is so full of shit most every day
So you've got to think, think (think) for yourself
If you don't want to get swept away

You can live your live for someone else
Or choose to live it for yourself
Because no matter what it's just you in your very own way
