Been doin' fine keepin' my distance, holdin' my own

But if we got anything in common, it's that we can't leave well enough alone

And I'll get you out of my head a time or two before

You show up like an apparition just as I'm locking up the bar

Now, I got one foot out the door, and you're still gettin' dressed

Hate I can't say "no" as easily as you say "yes"

I'm a real piece of shit, and you're a vixen in a dress

I thought we was movin' on, but I was wrong, I guess

Backsliders gonna backslide

Sometimes, it feels like we're the only two people in this damn town

Like everybody else and everything, it's just a daydream on the way down

And I either got no time at all or too much to spend

Love you like a breath when I ain't workin' myself to death 'cause I'm longin' for the ghost of a friend

Now, I got one foot out the door, and you're still gettin' dressed

Hate I can't say "no" as easily as you say "yes"

I'm a real piece of shit, and you're a vixen in a dress

I thought we was movin' on, but I was wrong, I guess

Backsliders gonna backslide

Now, I got one foot out the door, and you're still gettin' dressed

Backsliders gonna backslide
