Backslide Songtext
von Marc Copely

My conscience is beginning to pretend
Self-destruction′s coming to an end
I'd stop the words before they leave my mouth
But the reset button′s all worn out

The temptation's clear
It's ringing in my ears

I backslide
Taking the time
One last time
I backslide

My sobered eyes are starting to believe
I need to taste everything I see
Any one could be a brand new day
If I could just stay out of my own way

The temptation′s clear
It′s ringing in my ears


I backslide
Taking the time
One last time
I backslide

Escalation, hesitating
Constant need, condemnation
My infection is obsession
Don't take away my prized possession

Don′t take away my prized possession
Don't take away my prized possession
Don′t take away my prized possession
Don't take away my prized possession

I backslide
Taking the time
One last time
I backslide
I backslide
Taking the time
One last time
I backslide
