Backfire by Egypt Central Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Get me out of this God-forsaken city
Let me start over somewhere new
All my friends have turned up missing
I can't blame it on my youth
Throw my heart in the well of wishing
Pay my toll to just move on
Ask myself to please forgive me
All my innocence is gone
[Chorus]
Backfire
They backfire, all these choices you're scared to make
'Cause they backfire
They backfire, all these choices you're scared to make
[Verse 2]
All the street lights lead me to the river
All my ghosts not far behind
If I could leave this town forever
It seems like no ones on my side
Duck your head and run for cover
Cross that bridge and just move on
Save myself but lose another
All my innocence is gone
[Chorus]
Backfire
They backfire, all these choices you're scared to make
'Cause they backfire
They backfire, all these choices you're scared to make
[Bridge]
And I can't find a cure
Oh, to fix me anymore
And all these things I've done
Have got me on the run
Got me on the run
[Pre-Chorus]
Backfire
They backfire, all these choices
[Chorus]
Backfire
They backfire, all these choices you're scared to make
'Cause they backfire
They backfire, all these choices you're scared to make
[Outro]
Get me out of this God-forsaken city
Let me start over somewhere new
Get me out of this God-forsaken city
Let me start over somewhere new
All my friends have turned up missing
I can't blame it on my youth
Throw my heart in the well of wishing
Pay my toll to just move on
Ask myself to please forgive me
All my innocence is gone
[Chorus]
Backfire
They backfire, all these choices you're scared to make
'Cause they backfire
They backfire, all these choices you're scared to make
[Verse 2]
All the street lights lead me to the river
All my ghosts not far behind
If I could leave this town forever
It seems like no ones on my side
Duck your head and run for cover
Cross that bridge and just move on
Save myself but lose another
All my innocence is gone
[Chorus]
Backfire
They backfire, all these choices you're scared to make
'Cause they backfire
They backfire, all these choices you're scared to make
[Bridge]
And I can't find a cure
Oh, to fix me anymore
And all these things I've done
Have got me on the run
Got me on the run
[Pre-Chorus]
Backfire
They backfire, all these choices
[Chorus]
Backfire
They backfire, all these choices you're scared to make
'Cause they backfire
They backfire, all these choices you're scared to make
[Outro]
Get me out of this God-forsaken city
Let me start over somewhere new
