Backwards

Once upon a time There were things that we didn't mind, oh I'd hop in for a ride, moving fast, never looking backwards Play our favourite songs Do the words still make you feel the same? Oh Once upon a time Driving fast, never looking back I know that I know how to find words, say them out loud I'm done letting myself down My heart came from the right place I don't wanna cause heartache But my mind just couldn't translate How to deal with these emotions Can start fire and still get burn And I'll fuel it like I ain't learnt 'Cause it hurts me if I hurt you So I hurt you, so you hate me But you won't leave, I can't get out How you held me, oh I hope that you see There's no way you'd know Oh, how you helped me Now I'm driving fast Like the way that you used to drive, oh I'd jump into your bed Live your days, they were never mine Tell me why the light stayed on red? That must have been a sign All these little things that we missed, we'll get over in time You taught me about patience Raised all my expectations You showed me what's my ground I stand here, and I look down on myself, and I'm so proud Thank you 'cause I've figured out What's best for me is on my own now It's been a while, and I'm grown now But I'd never have grown if you weren't 'round You've shown me what's meant to be What's meant for you is not meant for me And we'll find out in this next life How you held me, oh I hope that you see There's no way you'd know Oh, how you helped me
