4 Steps Back, 2 Steps Forward Songtext
von Motion Sick

When I was a kid, I thought my life would end up different
Grow up have a family, get a job that makes a difference
I was fucking wrong, at 21 I′m inconsistent
But progress never loved me, I'll never love it back

But what am I to say?
I brace the storm, the clouds still end up gray
But what am I to do?
′Cause all my ships keep sailing back to you

What's the point of getting older?
Four steps back and two steps forward
You think I'm wrong
I hope you′re right about life
′Cause I feel so, I feel so cornered


And I'm sorry dad, you won′t see me get my diploma
I won't walk your alma mater, but you′ve seen through this persona
And I'm sorry mom, you didn′t mean to raise a coward
I hear the disappointment hit the floor from off your tongue

But what did you expect?
I brace the storm, and I'm still feeling dead

What's the point of getting older?
Four steps back and two steps forward
You think I′m wrong
I hope you′re right about life
'Cause I feel so, I feel so cornered

Four steps back and two steps forward
Four steps back and two steps forward
Four steps back and two steps forward
