Looking Back
You're living in a place you left behind
Going round in circles all the time
Can't see the way ahead It's like your blind
So open your eyes in time
Realign just what you've got
With what you nearly had and what you want
You fall asleep and then the moment's gone
Yeah, it's hard to undo time
Hard to separate my past from my rhyme
Because how could you separate milk from lime?
Waste my time
Looking back
You always seem to be looking back
Feels like your mind's always somewhere else
You're always looking over your shoulder
Think of all the places you can never be
The beauty in the faces that you'll never see
As you lie there sleeping
How the moment flies
They say life makes sense backwards
Only you got to live it foward
Don't waste your time
No, don't waste your time
Just looking back
looking back
Am I the only one trying to fight off an army
Of memories dressed up all trying to harm me?
I feel cocky running up the steps like Rocky
Until the past come flashing like paparazzi
Nothing is new so I open my folder
My favorite view is over my shoulder
Everything backwards is my plight
It's landing first when in my flight
Even my tears run up my cheeks
Back in my eye
Live I die
I waste my time
Yeah, you always seem to be looking back
Feels like your mind's always somewhere else
You're always looking over your shoulder
You're always looking back
Over and over and over
