Backwards I Go Lyrics by I’m No Chessman

2023

The phone it rings your name lit up
My head begins to conjure up
A string of words with no gaps or space to let reason breathe
The growth the things I thought had changed
That ringtone will evaporate and so
It's backwards I go
It's like a portal through time
And I can't stand it
Transcending years down the line
Why am I here again?
A version of myself I thought I'd left behind
Never is that far away and now I'm here to stay
I don't know what your motives are
You could be genuine but it seems
You have flicked a switch and now there's no way I can bе
Reasonably though when you speak
In that calm and pеaceful tone, I won't
And backwards I go
It's like a portal through time
And I can't stand it
Transcending years down the line
Why am I here again?
A version of myself I thought I'd left behind
Never is that far away and now I'm here to stay
I never wanted anymore
I always get dragged down to your
Level no matter what I do
I have to re live this with you
It's like a portal through time
And I can't stand it
Transcending years down the line
Why am I here again?
A version of myself I thought I'd left behind
Never is that far away and now I'm here to stay
