Backwards

Take me backwards
Turn me around
Cannot find my balance
On the ground
This world is too heavy
For a feather falling quickly
And I wrote your story
But I´m afraid of how it ends
And though my friends are doing well
And I´m still on the mend
I´m going to lay back down
Hope the wind takes me around
I gotta find some courage in this town
Cause nobody´s going to save
Somebody who won´t change
I tried to be brave
Nothing´s coming easy
And all at once
I feel a little queasy
Oh but if you lost my remedy
Would you please come and be with me
It´s not like there´s much better
But his grasp is as green as mine
I can´t say that I´m satisfied
Three thousand miles from your kiss goodbye
I´m going to lay back down
Hope the wind takes me around
I gotta find some courage in this town
And everybody´s afraid
Cause chances come from change
And everybody´s afraid
Cause chances come from breaking
That chances are you´re breaking open
I´m going to lay back down
Hope the wind takes me around
I gotta find some courage in this town
Cause nobody´s going to save
Somebody who won´t change
It´s time to be brave
Turn me around
Cannot find my balance
On the ground
This world is too heavy
For a feather falling quickly
And I wrote your story
But I´m afraid of how it ends
And though my friends are doing well
And I´m still on the mend
I´m going to lay back down
Hope the wind takes me around
I gotta find some courage in this town
Cause nobody´s going to save
Somebody who won´t change
I tried to be brave
Nothing´s coming easy
And all at once
I feel a little queasy
Oh but if you lost my remedy
Would you please come and be with me
It´s not like there´s much better
But his grasp is as green as mine
I can´t say that I´m satisfied
Three thousand miles from your kiss goodbye
I´m going to lay back down
Hope the wind takes me around
I gotta find some courage in this town
And everybody´s afraid
Cause chances come from change
And everybody´s afraid
Cause chances come from breaking
That chances are you´re breaking open
I´m going to lay back down
Hope the wind takes me around
I gotta find some courage in this town
Cause nobody´s going to save
Somebody who won´t change
It´s time to be brave
