lyrics

You. You don't even notice, when i'm smiling
You. You don't even notice, when i'm dying
You. You don't even notice, true i'm lying
You.

I'm not gonna back down this time, oh no.
I'm not gonna forgive and forget you, for too long.
I'm not gonna back down this time, oh no.
Cause i've seen your ways before this day.
And i've seen your ways down, upon the floor
And i've seen your scars, running down the back door.
The back door. The back door. The back door.

You. You wanna call me names, tell me it's just a game.
You wanna feel pain, but the beauty still remains.
I cannot hide this, it's just too unforeseen.
Can we ride this, a film without a name.

I'm not gonna back down this time, oh no.
I'm not gonna forgive and forget you, for too long.
I'm not gonna back down this time, oh no.
Cause i've seen your ways before this day.
And i've seen your ways down, upon the floor
And i've seen your scars, running down the back door.
The back door. The back door. The back door.

This is where we come, to keep the peace.
This is where we come, to hide away.
You become, what you despise.
Open your eyes. Open your eyes.

Now you've grown to and now you've grown to hate me.
Now you've grown to and now you've grown to need me.
Need me.

In a previous life, the compelling Jess Coram traipsed the country and the globe as the founder of badass punks Bitchslap and as the rhythm guitarist for Sydney alt-poppers The Mis-Made, resulting in multiple albums and a stint opening for grunge wave icons L7 in 2016. But after playing in bands for nearly 18 years, Coram reached a crossroads that inevitably resulted in a plunge into solo waters. ... more
