Back to Life
L.i.zee Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

I came down of this road
A path that is now blown
But now I know much more
It comes from out the core

I noticed a new way
Just the other day
Some find it as a shock

Some thing they want to block
But I was better off

I thought I knew you, but I just outgrew you, I know it by now
Some moments seem perfect, some just like a glitch, but it was more then this
So, here we go now, loose all control to
Get in a better place
Start all over with grace
Make a new fitting phrase
To get your life back

You think you've seen it all
But there is more to come
You thought you lost control
An even deeper fall

But then you understand
It's a pattern once again
You might just give it back
A surprise, what the heck
I want it my way

I thought I knew you, but I just outgrew you, I know it by now
Some moments seem perfect, some just like a glitch, but it was more then this
So, here we go now, loose all control to
Get in a better place
Start all over with grace
Make a new fitting phrase
To get your life back

Oeh, oeh, oeh, oeh
Oeh, oeh, oeh, oeh

I thought I knew you, but I just outgrew you, I know it by now
Some moments seem perfect, some just like a glitch, but it was more then this
So, here we go now, loose all control to
Get in a better place
Start all over with grace
Make a new fitting phrase, to
Get in a better place
Start all over with grace

Make a new fitting phrase
To get your life back
