Lyrics
The Backlash
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.
Guilty conscience, pressure to do right all the time
Breaking down the doors that were locked every night
I'm calling out those who did me wrong in the past
The backlash, but I won't go back
And I thought it was all in my head
Thought I was better off dead
But I will never let them win because
I know what I want, I know what I want to be
The will, the drive to achieve something great
So don't ever believe you can't ever change fate
I'm leaving behind all the wrong in my past
The backlash, but I won't go back.
And I thought it was all in my head
Thought I was better off dead
But I will never let them win because I know what I want to be
And I thought it was all in my head
Thought I was better off dead
But I will never let them win because I know what I want
Keep calm and breathe
What's happening to me?
Sick of suffocating from mental disease
Keep calm and breathe
What's happening to me?
The cure lies within those who choose to believe
Keep calm and breathe
What's happening to me?
I'm sick of suffocating from mental disease
Keep calm and breathe
The cure lies within those who choose to always believe
And I thought it was all in my head
Thought I was better off dead
And now I'll never let them win because I know what I want from me
And I thought it was all in my head
But I was never better off dead
And now I'll never let them win because I know what I want.
I know what I want to be
What do you want, what do you want from me?
