Songtexte Backsliding - Milles Day

One step forward, ten steps back... here we go again

Two whole weeks of silence, I was finally getting clean
I blocked your number from my phone, deleted every scene
I was sleeping through the night, I was feeling strong and tough
Yeah, I really, truly thought that I had had enough

But then the clock strikes midnight, and my discipline gets weak
I see your name light up my phone, I can barely even speak
My head is screaming "Don't you do it! You've come so very far!"
But my heart is revving up just like a getaway car

And oh, I'm backsliding, losing all control
Falling right back into the black hole of your soul
Yeah, I'm backsliding, running all the lights
Trading all my progress for just one of our good nights
I know the morning's gonna hit me like a heart attack
But tonight, I'm backsliding, and I'm never looking back

Oh-oh-oh, backsliding
Oh-oh-oh, yeah, I'm backsliding

Now I'm in your apartment, and your t-shirt's on the floor
And I'm ignoring all the reasons I walked out that door
You're feeding me the same sweet lies, a beautiful cliché
And for a couple hours, I believe I'm gonna stay

'Cause in the hazy moonlight, my discipline is weak
You whisper that you miss me and I can barely even speak
My head is screaming "You're a fool! You've come so very far!"
But my heart is flooring it inside this getaway car

And oh, I'm backsliding, losing all control
Falling right back into the black hole of your soul
Yeah, I'm backsliding, running all the lights
Trading all my progress for just one of our good nights
I know the morning's gonna hit me like a heart attack
But tonight, I'm backsliding, and I'm never looking back

Oh-oh-oh, backsliding
Oh-oh-oh, yeah, I'm backsliding

Tomorrow I'll wake up in a panic, full of shame and deep regret
I'll have to start the healing over, try my best to just forget
This moment is a poison, a temporary fix, I know it's true
But for now, the only antidote is another dose of you

And oh, I'm backsliding, losing all control
Falling right back into the black hole of your soul
Yeah, I'm backsliding, running all the lights
Trading all my progress for just one of our good nights
I know the morning's gonna hit me like a heart attack
But tonight, I'm backsliding, and I'm never looking back!
