Sleepy Hips - Backdrop Lyrics

6am start today
It's a mind cluttered drive
Hours away from relief and it's time to go under the knife

White on white walls I see
The smell of disease, I'm shaking in fear
As I'm put fast asleep

Where did this all start?
Two years of pain all build up to a moment that is happening today
I should of been working a gig
Living in a house with my best friends
Now I can't walk, forced out of home
I put my livelihood away

In the backdrop
In the backdrop
Don't put me away
In the backdrop
Don't put me away

A North American tune
Plays over in my head
She trips off the curb on the second date we had
And 100 times, 1000 times the adventures play on

And I know it's unlikely but what if I don't wake up?
What would be left behind
To keep a piece of me near a room full of gear
How would you split it up?
Where would it sit?

In the backdrop
In the backdrop
Don't put me away
In the backdrop
Don't put me away
