Backwards
Keep on reaching backwards
Keep on reaching backwards
Maybe we will find an answer we don't mind
Keep on reaching backwards
Keep on reaching backwards
Raise a middle finger high to authority
Go to college, major in conspiracy
We blindly pledge allegiance to anarchy
Not knowing that we’re only in conformity
We cling tightly to our history
While making it a permanent mythology
The world is burning down
We're following a clown
We fight for our rights, and we’re losing our integrity
Who wants to know what the world's gonna be like
A hundred years from now
Someone just might push a little button
And we won't be here no how
Keep on reaching backwards
Keep on reaching backwards
Was there ever peace on Earth?
If there was, what was it worth?
Keep on reaching backwards
Keep on reaching backwards
Was there ever peace on Earth?
If there was, what was it worth?
So we light a candle to show our empathy,
Say thoughts and prayers, call it sympathy
We're always on the lookout for someone to blame
Find a villain, make a killing, give me a name
Instead of coming up with a valid solution
Gimme a name
Instead of coming up with a valid solution
(guitar solo)
Who wants to know what the world's gonna be like
A hundred years from now
Someone just might push a little button
And we won't be here no how
Keep on reaching backwards
Keep on reaching backwards
Maybe we will find an answer we don't mind
Keep on reaching backwards
Keep on reaching backwards
Maybe we will find an answer we don't mind
Keep on reaching backwards
Keep on reaching backwards
Keep on reaching backwards
Keep on reaching backwards
