My backwards walk

I´m working on my backwards walk
Walking with no shoes or socks
And the time rewinds to the end of May
I wish we´d never met, then met today
I´m working on my faults and cracks
Filling in the blanks and gaps
And when I write them out they don´t make sense
I need you to pencil in the rest
I´m working on drawing a straight line
And I´ll draw until I get one right
It´s bold and dark, girl, can´t you see
I done drawn a line between you and me
I´m working on erasing you
Just don´t have the proper tools
I´ll get hammered, forget that you exist
There´s no way I´m forgetting this
I´m working hard on walking out
Shoes keep sticking to the ground
My clothes won´t let me close the door
´Cause the trousers seem to love your floor
I been working on my backwards walk
There´s nowhere else for me to go
Except back to you just one last time
Say yes before I change my mind
Say yes before I...
You´re the shit and I´m knee-deep in it
Walking with no shoes or socks
And the time rewinds to the end of May
I wish we´d never met, then met today
I´m working on my faults and cracks
Filling in the blanks and gaps
And when I write them out they don´t make sense
I need you to pencil in the rest
I´m working on drawing a straight line
And I´ll draw until I get one right
It´s bold and dark, girl, can´t you see
I done drawn a line between you and me
I´m working on erasing you
Just don´t have the proper tools
I´ll get hammered, forget that you exist
There´s no way I´m forgetting this
I´m working hard on walking out
Shoes keep sticking to the ground
My clothes won´t let me close the door
´Cause the trousers seem to love your floor
I been working on my backwards walk
There´s nowhere else for me to go
Except back to you just one last time
Say yes before I change my mind
Say yes before I...
You´re the shit and I´m knee-deep in it
