I found him drowned
He didn't breathe for too long
Darling, we all need air

Around the town
The people never smile
It's like they want to frown
And walk with their heads down

They think the world is going backwards
They think the world is turning backwards
We're getting worse and going backwards
Oh no

I saved the day
And no one knew about it
But I know that someone cares
Because it matters somewhere

We are not going backwards
We are not going backwards
We are not going backwards
Ever

You are not going backwards
You are not going backwards
You are not going backwards
Ever
