about

This is Backyard Cities' first single off of their Self Titled album

lyrics

I smashed my alarm
cuz I am never asleep
my eyes are closed
and my body is weak
I’m so sick of my life
where I don’t keep in touch
with the people I swore
that I had once loved

I can see you
when I open my eyes
watching me sleep
from my bedside
your face begins
to distort and twist
oh, this isn’t the way
that I want to live
So I get up
I walk down the hall
you follow close behind
maybe I’m dead after all
so I man up
I go out the door
the air feels colder
than it did before

and I passed the bench
where we used to sit
if there’s a god above
I’m not ready for this
if there’s a god above
I’m not ready for this

so I kept on walking idly by
my thoughts got dark
along with the sky
a drizzle became a heavy rain
I shout at the clouds
“Oh c’mon, why?”
And I take my time
getting back inside
I know as soon as I do
you’ll make me wanna die

That was the day
I was saved by rock n roll
I picked up my guitar
and let punk take my soul (2x)

That was the dayyyyyy
I picked up my guitar
I was saved by rock n roll
and that was the dayyyy
I picked up my guitar
and let punk take my soul (3x)
