[Verse 1]
Dishes in the
sink
Circles from
your drink
Say the table’s
there for coffee
Scrubbing out the
stains
Wash it down the
drain
Airing out our
dirty laundry

[Pre-Chorus]
Tell me I’m always like
this
When everything gets a
little quiet
You didn’t have to and
then you said it
And now it’s out there
and you can’t take it
[Chorus]
Back, back track
Better think fast
Swear to God you didn’t
mean it like that
Back, back track
Now you feel bad
Too far gone to try to
take it all back
Turn your words to ice
on my bruise
Can’t pull a punch you
already threw
Back, back track
Better think fast
Too far gone and baby
now it’s just sad

[Verse 2]
Staying out the house
Sleeping on the couch
So I don’t have to hear
you breathing
Circling the ring
Here we go again
I don’t need to stand
here while you

[Pre-Chorus]
Tell me I’m always like
this
When everything gets a
little quiet
You didn’t have to and
then you said it
And now it’s out there
and you can’t take it
[Chorus]
Back, back track
Better think fast
Swear to God you didn’t
mean it like that
Back, back track
Now you feel bad
Too far gone to try to
take it all back
Turn your words to ice
on my bruise
Can’t pull a punch you
already threw
Back, back track
Better think fast
Too far gone and baby now
it’s just sad

[Bridge]
Not gonna say it
You wouldn’t say it
to me
Then you go and say
it
And you always say
what you mean
Not gonna say it
You wouldn’t say it
to me
Then you go and say
it
And you always say
what you mean

[Chorus]
Back, back track
Better think fast
Swear to God you didn’t
mean it like that
Back track
Now you feel bad
Too far gone to try to
take it all back
Turn your words to ice
on my bruise
Can’t pull a punch you
already threw
Back, back track
Better think fast
Too far gone and baby
now it’s just sad
