Watch you through the window
Taking out the dead
Singing I miss you, Singing I miss you
Stabs me in the face, cuts me in the neck
Steel toe kicks 
Straight through the teeth
Straight through the teeth
Straight through the teeth

Backwards, backwards
Skull pressed to the glass
Backwards, backwards
Throat full of the past

The frosting's rancid between broken teeth
Fever threading through my spine
You metastasize in memory
I'm the limb that won't align
Steel toe kicks 
Straight through the teeth
Straight through the teeth
Straight through the teeth

Backwards, backwards
Nails dragging skin
Backwards, backwards
Wearing you thin

Don't make me look
Don't make me
The mirror's eating itself
Swallowing me frame by frame
I'm becoming ecstatic
becoming ecstatic

Gravity inverts
The floor becomes a mouth
I'm walking backwards through my bones
Into the erasure
Into the shape I used to be

Backwards
