Backdrop Songtext
von Thomas Lock

They say
"Everything′s alright today
This is the way it's meant to be"
Well, apologies, but this sort of thing
Never came naturally to me

And through everything I try to make
And everything I fail to take
The city′s just a backdrop to me

She said
"Listen to your soul, feel him calling you home
There need be no restraint on your heart"
Well she's an advocate for change
And I thought I felt the same
But now I see the way
They'll all leave me anyway

Stay strong or get strong
Stay strong or get


They say
"Everything′s alright today
This is the way it′s meant to be"
Well, apologies, but this sort of thing
Never came naturally to me

And through everything I try to make
And everything I fail to take
The city's just a backdrop to me
Is any city just a backdrop to me?

Fearless
Sleepless
Feel this
Are you seeing this?

I′m not fearless
I'm sleepless
I′m feeling this
Are you seeing this?

And now
"Everything's alright today
This is the way it′s meant to be"
You see it was really always this kind of thing
That came naturally to me


And through everything I try to make
And everything I fail to take
The city's not a backdrop to me
You'll never be a backdrop
You could never be a backdrop to me
