Jake Shears - Sad Song Backwards Lyrics

Every god damn day since you left me
Hung me dry betrayed and you effed me
I'm bereft depressed and so confused
I didn't quiet understand what you wanted
You'd shoot down Superman if you hunted
No one's safe inside the sight you use

With red flags and shopping bags
You don't spare them horses
Just spare me all the grief and bitter pain
'Cause I can't handle one more night
You fill my heart with dynamite and
Only one thing seems to keep me sane

Play a sad songs backwards
And pretend I got you back
Make believe that I'm not pacing up and down these halls
Taking double fistfuls of Prozac

Can't take a full step forward
Until I make two in reverse
I'm tired of living in this broke-down, busted, sad Joanna chorus
Take me back into the verse

I can always try to give a little love
Good man always die
That never get enough
I say that's no business of mine

Lord won't you come on down and try to carry me
I may need dose of shock therapy
Have I turned my blood into wine?

On all the surfaces medicinal purposes
Mayday, S.O.S, it's true
That I swear, I'd do anything
Including get up and sing
To stop me now from thinking of you

Play a sad songs backwards
And I'll imagine that you're not gone
And try to forget when I woke up at 11:10 this morning
I was face down on the lawn

I'll deny that I'm not binging
On vodkas, Red Bulls and Lucky Strikes
Until I glue back all the
Tiny little pieces scattered around
Of a heart you never broke

And I'll keep trying to find my way (find my way)
If you were years of heaven
This is ground hog day

Play a sad songs backwards
I'll pretend I got you back
Make believe that I'm not contemplatin' going to bed tonight
On the local railroad tracks

Hind-sight is 20/20
But I see clearly, love is blind
Tell myself it's not a broken record skipping off the shelf
And you're last thing on my mind

Play a sad songs backwards (sad song backwards)
Play a sad songs backwards (sad song backwards)
Sad songs backwards
