Backwards Living
We go through the rain
Before the sun breaks the pain
Blood is shed
Before the soul is fed
We take a step forward
Just to take two backwards
We stress over everything before doing what we're told:
To let go and let God take control
We hold on to the people who we think are our friends
Until their true colors are revealed in the end
