Today I saw a film going backwards

Thirty Frames A Second

Was a man I recognised

Say who you are

I lost my job

Security

Self confidence

Bank account

Identity

The league of youth

Coming backward at me

Thirty Frames a second

Say who you are

Go back to father

Father where's my food?

You food is on the table

That can't be food

It's dirt

Say who you are

Look at my skin

Look at my face

Look at my arms

Getting younger

Going backwards

Thirty Frames A Second

Say who you are

I crash my car

Collapse in town

Young immigrants

And legionaires

Fighting back back backwards

Thirty Frames A Second

Say who you are

Some friends of mine

I thought were dead

A coming back

"What are you doing coming back

Jack"

Say who you are

Feel I'm going backwards

Thirty Frames A Second
