Stagger Lyrics
[Verse 1]
A crisis without a cause
Faith put in a false God
A misstep of emoting
I'm tryna get to where I'm going
A new way to call it off
You leaned in when I told you to stop
My heart is now imploding
I'm tryna get to where I'm going
[Chorus]
Stagger on through life backwards
You stagger on through life backwards
Backward, backward, backwards
[Verse 2]
You're quite the oppositionist
So your habits you're not trying to quit
Out of fear and loathing
I'm just tryna get to where I'm going
You see the mountain's just a cliff
And I can't talk you down from it
The road home is eroding
I'm just tryna get to where I'm going
[Chorus]
Stagger (Stagger) on through life backwards
You stagger (Stagger) on through life backwards
Backward, backward, backwards
[Bridge]
Now I'm waving the white flag
I had your back, but you got me bad
My loyalty has fucked me back
And I'm learning lessons in how to detach
[Chorus]
Stagger (Stagger) on through life backwards
You stagger (Stagger) on through life backwards
Backward, backward
Backward, backward
Backward, backward
Backward, backwards

You let people make th...
