Backwords Songtext

Backwards from point of destruction
DS is my introduction
Watch it unfold as the track stands
Transcend as I watch it unfold
Backwards from point of destruction
DS is my introduction
Watch it unfold as the track stands
Transcend as I watch it unfold

Smashed head first into oncoming traffic
Missed a red light ′cause I was driving erratic
Backwards a hundred miles an hour down the E-Way
Lights blurrin' by me, make it hard for me to see straight
Eyes all flossy and my brain on tilt
Got out the car, man fuck a seatbelt
Stumblin′, lookin' for the keys to my car
Mighty mighty drunk, now I'm back at the bar


Blood all over, now I see the back end
Of the bullet as returnin′ to the gun under my chin
Sirens disappear from the front of my house
With 911 askin′ what the emergency about
I'm goin′ crazy, insane, tryin' to maintain
Everything I love is causin′ me all the pain
My family's all gone, check the message on the phone
Turn the lights on, ′cause I just got home

Backwards from point of destruction
DS is my introduction
Watch it unfold as the track stands
Transcend as I watch it unfold
Backwards from point of destruction
DS is my introduction
Watch it unfold as the track stands
Transcend as I watch it unfold

I kissed her lips, shut her eyes and stepped away
I grabbed the knife out of her throat and hear her say
She doesn't love me but she doesn't see the blade
That I snuck into her house with through the window in the rain
The rain is pourin′ as I stand on her steps
Before I walk up, I pause and take a deep breath
Pull up in the drive and shut the lights off
I keep thinkin′ man I can't get caught


I′m in a frantic panic, a committer of sin
Shirt soaked in blood and dirt down to my skin
Now the deed is done, the hole is sealed tight
This bitch's bones will never again see the light
I remember pickin′ up the pole for the bludgeonin'
And the mile of followin′ that you might call stalkin'
It ain't my fault she sat next to me at the bar
That′s a hoe that′s been pollutin' my dreams, day in day out

Backwards from point of destruction
DS is my introduction
Watch it unfold as the track stands
Transcend as I watch it unfold
Backwards from point of destruction
DS is my introduction
Watch it unfold as the track stands
Transcend as I watch it unfold

The bullet flew out his neck and up my gun barrel
My finger raised off the trigger and stayed curled
I lifted up off my back and now I′m standin'
His fist pulled out of my hide, he′s demandin'
My jacket and wallet, but I walk in reverse
Back up out of the alley I shoulda passed in the first place
Time time and chance are on my side
The inevitable has been denied
D-d-denied, d-d-denied, d-d-denied, d-d-denied

Backwards from point of destruction
DS is my introduction
Watch it unfold as the track stands
Transcend as I watch it unfold
Backwards from point of destruction
DS is my introduction
Watch it unfold as the track stands
Transcend as I watch it unfold

As I watch it unfold
Watch it unfold as the track stands
As I watch it unfold
Watch it unfold as the track stands
