Jilly - Backslide

Here we go, looking like we're back again
To something old, when will we start listening?
To our past, to our friends
These circles never end
They still come around
And we cannot pretend
That the time that we spend
Isn't profound, mm mm
We keep trippin' on the backslide
Getting caught up in the good times
No thinking 'bout the real life
(No control, we go, get in the zone)
It must've been the sunshine
Or it could've been the moonlight
Now we're dreaming of the full ride
(Take it slow, don't fold, never could know)
We keep slippin' on the backslide
It was a bad idea right from the start
Commute cross-country for a future fall-apart
You said it was all calculated risk
But all that thinking goes to nothing 'cause
Logic don't mean shit
On the backslide
Getting caught up in the good times
No thinking 'bout the real life
(No control, we go, get in the zone)
It must've been the sunlight
Or it could've been the moonshine
Now we're dreaming of the full ride
(Take it slow, don't fold, never could know)
We keep slippin' on the backslide
And I've never had much of a reason to stay
Except it would mean I'd be getting to see your face
