Backwards Forwards
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.
No, you first
Well you brought it up
I'm just swimming in my temptation
My blood my wine
Now I'm having
A whirlwind of a time
Confusion is mine I own it
I can never get to you if I'm going
Back and forth
Backwards forwards
Back and forth
Backwards forwards
Wake up in the twilight
You're a dream in black and blue
You're in between the sky and the ground
And I can never get to you
A dirty compromise
A dirty split in the making
Well that's an abyss of a thought
Truly no one knows what they've got
(It's always)
Back and forth
Backwards forwards
Back and forth
Backwards forwards
Maybe it's all because I'm not made for it
Give me back my brain let me sugarcoat it
All is well when you're lost and then you're found
Seriously it's like moving
Back and forth
Backwards forwards
Back and forth
Backwards forwards
