Lyrics
Backroads
carry me i’m all alone
this house no longer feels like home
use my words as my disguise
i feel it as you come alive
hold me tell me i’m the one
there’s still some light in a dying sun
breathe me in i’ll breathe you out
i’ll love you still without a doubt
i. i can feel it, it’s coming true
i. i don’t need anything from you
i feel the shadows and they’re overtaking mine
i’ll take the backroads wouldn’t want to waste your time
leave you to bleed but you won’t let me say goodbye
begging me please but i needed to survive
in the backseat of my car
it takes no time to get so far
let you light another spark
cause im still blinded in the dark
say you love me by the shore
but change ur mind when u get bored
it's like i’ve got this life to live
But they want what i can't seem to give
i. i can feel you drift away
i. i don’t have anything to say
i feel the shadows and they’re overtaking mine
i’ll take the backroads wouldn’t want to waste your time
leave you to bleed but i won't stay to say goodbye
begging me please but i needed to survive
i said, i swore, i wouldn’t drown
you said, you swore, you’d pull me out
i prayed, i tried, to make you stay
you laughed, you turned, you walked away
i feel the shadows and they’re overtaking mine
i’ll take the backroads wouldn't want to waste your time
leave me to bleed and you won’t let me say goodbye
begging me please but i needed to survive
