Backbone Lyrics by There For Tomorrow

A Little Faster

2009

[Verse 1]
Your game, your lovely game
Is like pain and suffering
Your fame, your newly found fame
Is like repeating history

[Pre-Chorus 1]
You know that keeping me around
Makes me just quiver at the sounds
Wish I could feed their open mouths
With something worth it

[Chorus]
(Where is your backbone?)
'cause you're looking very flimsy
I'm breaking down your paper wall
(Where is your backbone?)
If you hear it sing it with me
Everybody take the fall
You look so sound asleep
I can't believe
That your backbone's missing
And you never had a clue at all

[Verse 2]
Believe, no I can't believe
How little all this means to me
You'll see, you'll just have to see
For yourself the playback is deafening

[Pre-Chorus 2]
Keeping me around
Makes me just quiver at the sounds
Wish I could feed their open mouths
With something worth it

[Chorus]

[Bridge]
You could've been something
You could've been something memorable
I should've said something
I should've said

[Chorus]

You look so sound asleep
I can't believe
That your backbone's missing
And you never had a clue at all
