I can tell it wears you out You deserve better now But a loss is a loss Any old way You played by the rules You kept every word But no one ever heard What you wanted to say It's a backwards world It's a backwards world Upstream is forward In a backwards world When a man gets your respect You know it won't buy him much So maybe it's not Worth as much as it once was In the total of it all Does it matter to announce So when I'll see myself Damn what is it for? Yeah, what is it all for? It's a backwards world It's a backwards world Upstream is forward In our backwards world Is this truly my faith? Pray to the Lord my soul to take Around, around, around If you don't show me sign Then it's up to me to find It's a backwards world It's a backwards world Upstream is forward In our backwards world
