Backbone Lyrics by Midnight Foxes

Pivotal Point

2019

[Verse 1]
So I woke up
Left you in the dust
Said good luck
Didn't let it bother me
But now you start talkin' softly
Telling me how it could be
But I remember why
Remember that I wanted to die
Cause of all your games inside my head
They were pushing me straight to the very edge
Now I'm in the homestretch
So happy that I left
And I'm all on my own
And you want me to come home
But baby don't you pick up that phone
Cause I like being alone
I like the unknown
And the uncertainty
And the very best part baby
Is that I finally like me

[Chorus]
No oh no you don't
Pick up that phone
Fine on my own
Found my backbone
I claim the throne
All for my own
You've been overthrown
Found my backbone

[Verse 2]
Look, look everywhere that I see
You always blowing me up lately
Can't get you out of my call history
You could never let it be
Pick and pick at me
Tell me what a dumb decision it was to leave
Tell me that only you can set me free
Oh baby if you could see me now
Oh dug myself out of the ground
Was living half alive
Just trying to survive
But oh no not now
Everyday I thrive
Ever since I cut ties
With all of your lies
What a big surprise
Now it's only good vibes
For the rest of my life

[Chorus]
No oh no you don't
Pick up that phone
Fine on my own
Found my backbone
I claim the throne
All for my own
You've been overthrown
Found my backbone

[Bridge]
Don't pick up your phone tonight
Don't pick it up

[Chorus]
No oh no you don't
Pick up that phone
Fine on my own
Found my backbone
I claim the throne
All for my own
You've been overthrown
Found my backbone

[Outro]
Found my backbone
