Lyrics
Retrograde
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Every night I prayed for, prayed for clarity (clarity)
All while you were lying right there next to me (me)
You barely even noticed I was losing sleep (sleep)
You barely even noticed you were losing me
Don't say shit to me
Don't say a word to me
Don't ask me to change
Don't want your heart to break
Words don't hurt no more
I heard it all before
Don't ask me to change
Don't want your heart to break
Don't want your heart to break
Don't want your heart to break
Ain't goin' backwards now
Ain't goin' backwards now
Is it just that you're so damn oblivious?
Or is it just that you don't take me serious? (-ious)
Counting my excuses more than millions (-ions)
Boy, I'm done with it, done with it, done with it
I don't even know what I'm doing here
Don't say shit to me
Don't say a word to me
Don't ask me to change
Don't want your heart to break
Words don't hurt no more
I heard it all before
Don't ask me to change (oh)
Don't want your heart to break
Don't want your heart to break
Don't want your heart to break
Ain't goin' backwards now
Ain't goin' backwards now
Ain't doin' retrograde
Ain't doin' retrograde
Ain't goin' backwards now
Ain't goin' backwards now
Don't want your heart to break
Don't want your heart to break
Ain't goin' backwards now
Ain't goin' backwards now
Ain't doin' retrograde
Ain't doin' retrograde
Ain't goin' backwards now
Ain't goin' backwards now
