If You Look Back Far Enough
If you look back far enough
Out the rearview mirror
Through the forest gruff
Intentions seem insincere
Out the rearview mirror
Through the window behind you
Intentions seem insincere
Every emotion is misconstrued
Through the window behind you
On the road you can’t escape
Every emotion is misconstrued
On the changing landscape
On the road you can’t escape
It’s hard to remember things as they were
On the changing landscape
It’s so easy to be deterred
It’s hard to remember things as they were
Through the forest gruff
It’s so easy to be deterred
If you look back far enough
