Back a Ways Lyrics

No we both go back a ways

So fast you won't catch the plates

Heard the old man gone passed away

Heard you got hurt now you mask the pain

No we both go back a ways

So fast you won't catch the plates

Never mind that I got cash to chase

Never had last better match the pace

Oh, butterfly

But the pattern doesn't matter in the night

Little pedals, falling to the floor

But the poor don't settle pure to the core

The allure of the devil

Hands up headlights

Looking for a way to get a ride to the city

Something there to prove but the truth ain't pretty

The sky turned grey, and the rain is acidic

Enticing life but the price is infinite

It's spinning the minute you get in it's only beginning

An exciting night leads to coincidences

Glad to see you had to bring

A different sense of expensive

Incentives get bent

And you feel the tension surrounding

They know you don't belong here

By the way that you're doubting

How would mama feel if she knew you allowed this

Anything for all the lights and life that you drowned in

No we both go back a ways

So fast you won't catch the plates

Heard the old man gone passed away

Heard you got hurt now you mask the pain

No we both go back a ways

So fast you won't catch the plates

Never mind that I got cash to chase

Never had last better match the pace

Breaking that backbone, fake your pleasure

Take yourself back home, or stay forever

No this life ain't what it seemed to be

Feeling like you might have woke up in a fever dream

Can you hold your breath, can you be here now

Oh, you better get pretty and quit the considering

Empty like promise to college and Italy

Living an image with limited liberty

Need to get rid of these pounds

As you float back down

You feel your heart don't beat or sound the same

Your knees start screaming out in pain

And the train departs an hour late

Summer's turned fall, wonder who you'll invovle

So call, the number from the scary guy

With pills that promise paradise

No we both go back a ways

So fast you won't catch the plates

Heard the old man gone passed away

Heard you got hurt now you mask the pain

No we both go back a ways

So fast you won't catch the plates

Never mind that I got cash to chase

Never had last better match the pace
