The outline's drawn, only colour's left to fade
We need to fix the frame, to hang it on the wall again
The corner's torn and the blacks are turning grey
All the shading's rubbed away and the canvas slowly frays

Too much time, wasted fighting
All this time, we've been sliding
Backwards, backwards, back

We got time tonight
Set the hands on fire
Watch the room ignite
Spend the night just killing time
Don't decide tonight
We'll just start a fire
Watch it light the sky
Just spend the night killing time

Every brush has got a broken end
For all the time it's spent, I'm done with trying to mend
Amongst the dust I search to find a pen
Don't wanna start it all again, just wanna make what we intend

Too much time, wasted fighting
All this time, we've been sliding
Backwards, backwards, back

We got time tonight
Set the hands on fire
Watch the room ignite
Spend the night just killing time
Don't decide tonight
We'll just start a fire
Watch it light the sky
Just spend the night killing time

We got time tonight
We can feed the fire
With our hopeless lies
Spend the big just killing time
Killing time
Backwards, backwards, back
