Back & Forth Lyrics by Electric Guest

Plural

2017

It’s your life for now
Do what you want with it
Once they’re dead and gone
Maybe I’ll feel again

Now that you’re older
Where are you going?
Feels like it’s over when I start to doubt
Nothing is closer
Goodbye composure
Making it harder when the lights go down

Back and forth I go
Show me the other way
Someday soon I’ll know
But now I can only say

What do you want from me? (x2)


Now that you’re older
Where are you going?
Making it harder when the lights go down
Nothing is closer
No more composure
Making it harder when the lights go out

What do you want from me? (x2)

That’s all I can say now
I can’t run away now
I’m trying to grow up but
It doesn’t look fun
And sometimes I’m lonely
Call up my homies
Need people around me
Who wanna turn up

Thought I’d never make it out
(When they turn around, turn your head away)
Then you came and showed me how
All I know is that I’ve found
(When they turn around, turn your head away)
That things get better when you’re around


But when you step back and let it go
You won’t feel alone
Back and forth I go
Show me the other way
One day soon I’ll know
But now I can only say

What do you want from me? (x2)

That’s all I can say now
When I lose my way now
I’m trying to turn up but
It doesn’t look fun
And sometimes I’m lonely
Call up my homies
Need people around me
Who wanna wake up

What do you want from me? (x4)
