"Walking Backwards" lyrics

There's nothing I can say
To make a difference
To what you're feeling
Right now
All that I can do
Keep my compass true
Be right by you
'Til the storm is through

And in all the stuff
That life will throw at us
I'm here
By your side
Ducking, diving
All the disses
The hits the misses

You know that there's a way
Words can play
A messed up game
In our minds
I'd rather walk the walk
Than talk the talk
I'm walking backwards

I'm walking backwards
To meet you in the middle
Who says one's
The only way?
I'm walking backwards
To meet you in the middle
To meet you in the middle

And what's a world
In black and white?
All the colours of the rainbow
Make it bright
You hold a mirror
To what I can't see
And if I don't get it
Well that's on me

So shine, shine
In all you are
Let's let our
Freak flag fly!
And who's the judge
Of wrong or right?
No one can tell us
How to live our lives

I'm walking backwards
To meet you in the middle
Who says one's
The only way?
I'm walking backwards
To meet you in the middle
To meet you in the middle
