Backwards

Struck out on my quest
Turned around and took two steps
Backwards
Heart out of my chest
Serving my emotion led
Backwards
"Lucky me" I said
Bitter never breaking bread
Backwards
Seems I failed this test
Living like I'm still not blessed

I'm sick and tired of losing track
Keep stacking sticks to pave a path
So sick and tired of falling flat
I'm trying tricks to face the fact

Guess I took the wrong way round
Shut the book and hit the ground
God I took the long way down
Cut the hook and kicked the crown

I'm sick and tired of church & chess
I take the wine and leave the bread
I'm jaded in the wilderness
And trying tricks to not confess

I don't break bread I just regret instead
Struggle and sweat shaking my head
Losing my steps like a bad bet, roulette
Holding my breathe with the time left

I don't break bread I just regret instead
Struggle and sweat shaking my head
Choosing my death like a bad bet, roulette
Holding my breathe with the time left

Guess I took the wrong way round
Shut the book and hit the ground
God I took the long way down
Cut the hook and kicked the crown
