[Verse 1]
Look at all the signs
Waving in the breeze
Such a silly sight I never thought I'd see
I feel it in the air
It's washing over me
Soon enough the tide
Will drag us all to sea
[Chorus]
So now we're traveling backwards
We are traveling backwards
[Verse 2]
He promised you the future
Say he got a plan
When it took his daddy's fortune
To make that boy a man
The truth is all around
Plain enough to see
He wanna turn the clock
Back on you and me
[Chorus]
So now we're traveling backwards
We are traveling backwards
[Bridge]
I might be okay if I couldn't say
He was speaking to half of us
I might be okay if I could say
There was one of them to trust
I might be okay if I couldn't say
He was speaking to half of us
I might be okay if I could say
There was one of them to trust
[Chorus]
But now we're traveling backwards
We are traveling backwards
[Outro]
I might be okay if I could say
There was one of them to trust
I must be okay if could say
He wasn't so dangerous
