Futureheads - Walking Backwards lyrics

rate me

Sometimes it feels like we are walking backwards up a mountain

Sometimes it feels like we don't know which way to go

We made a promise to keep our mouths shut stay out of the way

That promise went too far, that promise went too far away.

Walking backwards, with nothing to say.

Walking backwards backwards, to get out of the way.

Sometimes it feels like we are standing in the dark with nothing to say

But when the lights go out see no hear no speak no evil

Sometimes you're thinking that it's fine

At least we're both alive.

Life's what you make it but trouble is never far

Trouble is never far.

Walking backwards with nothing to say

Walking backwards, backwards to get out of the way

Walking backwards, with nothing to say.

Walking backwards backwards, to get out of the way.

Sometimes it feels like we’ve woken up in an empty room

All the doors are shut

I can see your breath and feel your fingertips

I reach for the light but I can’t find the switch

What happens if we fall between all the tiny gaps that we exist within?

That was then

This is now

We will find our legs and keep moving around

Walking backwards with nothing to say

Walking backwards, backwards to get out of the way

Walking backwards with nothing to say

Walking backwards, backwards to get out of the way

Walking backwards with nothing to say

Walking backwards, backwards to get out of the way

Walking backwards with nothing to say

Walking backwards, backwards to get out of the way

To get out of the way

To get out of the way

To get out of the way

Walking backwards

Walking backwards

Walking backwards

To get out of the way
