Backwards Keep on reaching backwards Keep on reaching backwards Maybe we will find an answer we don't mind Keep on reaching backwards Keep on reaching backwards Raise a middle finger high to authority Go to college, major in conspiracy We blindly pledge allegiance to anarchy Not knowing that we’re only in conformity We cling tightly to our history While making it a permanent mythology The world is burning down We're following a clown We fight for our rights, and we’re losing our integrity Who wants to know what the world's gonna be like A hundred years from now Someone just might push a little button And we won't be here no how Keep on reaching backwards Keep on reaching backwards Was there ever peace on Earth? If there was, what was it worth? Keep on reaching backwards Keep on reaching backwards Was there ever peace on Earth? If there was, what was it worth? So we light a candle to show our empathy, Say thoughts and prayers, call it sympathy We're always on the lookout for someone to blame Find a villain, make a killing, give me a name Instead of coming up with a valid solution Gimme a name Instead of coming up with a valid solution (guitar solo) Who wants to know what the world's gonna be like A hundred years from now Someone just might push a little button And we won't be here no how Keep on reaching backwards Keep on reaching backwards Maybe we will find an answer we don't mind Keep on reaching backwards Keep on reaching backwards Maybe we will find an answer we don't mind Keep on reaching backwards Keep on reaching backwards Keep on reaching backwards Keep on reaching backwards Lyrics and music by Russ Foreman and Larree Hollywood ©2026 All Rights Reserved
