1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:01,410
And welcome Matthites!

2
00:00:01,466 --> 00:00:02,186
Lotta' you know that

3
00:00:02,186 --> 00:00:03,362
I'm a finalist on an

4
00:00:03,362 --> 00:00:04,562
internet reality show;

5
00:00:04,562 --> 00:00:05,872
Internet Icon!

6
00:00:05,872 --> 00:00:07,652
A bit redundant..

7
00:00:07,652 --> 00:00:08,690
If you didn't know that,

8
00:00:08,690 --> 00:00:11,440
I.. guess I ruined that for you..

9
00:00:11,440 --> 00:00:12,060
I'm sorry.

10
00:00:12,060 --> 00:00:13,060
But what you're about to see

11
00:00:13,060 --> 00:00:15,441
is my final video

12
00:00:15,441 --> 00:00:16,032
So if you want

13
00:00:16,032 --> 00:00:16,844
me to win,

14
00:00:16,844 --> 00:00:17,744
Click the link

15
00:00:17,744 --> 00:00:18,645
down there,

16
00:00:18,645 --> 00:00:19,546
vote for me!

17
00:00:19,546 --> 00:00:20,546
Without further ado,

18
00:00:20,546 --> 00:00:21,546
this song;

19
00:00:21,546 --> 00:00:23,066
Backwards!

20
00:00:36,205 --> 00:00:37,122
Backwards,

21
00:00:37,122 --> 00:00:38,032
forwards.

22
00:00:38,032 --> 00:00:40,682
I'm exploring the borders

23
00:00:40,682 --> 00:00:43,102
Of everything I want,

24
00:00:43,642 --> 00:00:45,592
everything I need.

25
00:00:46,252 --> 00:00:50,814
Lethal doses of my own emotions,

26
00:00:51,154 --> 00:00:53,284
Seep into my dreams,

27
00:00:53,554 --> 00:00:56,044
and paralyze me!

28
00:00:56,044 --> 00:00:59,122
I pick myself up off the ground,

29
00:00:59,122 --> 00:01:01,345
I keep telling myself,

30
00:01:01,345 --> 00:01:04,145
"No, I'm not backing down!"

31
00:01:04,145 --> 00:01:06,445
I keep telling myself,

32
00:01:06,445 --> 00:01:09,215
The best is still yet to come!

33
00:01:09,215 --> 00:01:11,529
I keep telling myself,

34
00:01:11,529 --> 00:01:14,669
"It's darkest before the dawn!"

35
00:01:15,629 --> 00:01:17,758
I'm going backwards,

36
00:01:17,758 --> 00:01:20,758
and yet I'm made to believe.

37
00:01:20,758 --> 00:01:22,685
I'm moving forwards,

38
00:01:23,385 --> 00:01:25,685
and I'm chasing my dreams!

39
00:01:25,685 --> 00:01:27,749
But I'll be,

40
00:01:28,569 --> 00:01:30,579
just who I wanna be,

41
00:01:30,749 --> 00:01:33,701
without you controlling,

42
00:01:34,331 --> 00:01:35,841
controlling me.

43
00:01:36,641 --> 00:01:38,340
Toxic thoughts

44
00:01:38,340 --> 00:01:41,340
can make me easily drop this.

45
00:01:41,340 --> 00:01:43,608
But I won't shift my step!

46
00:01:43,608 --> 00:01:46,608
So there's nothing to regret!

47
00:01:46,608 --> 00:01:48,655
I'm broken and coping,

48
00:01:48,655 --> 00:01:51,655
with this broken hope and,

49
00:01:51,655 --> 00:01:53,783
I kept blaming them,

50
00:01:53,783 --> 00:01:56,783
when the doubt came from within!

51
00:01:56,783 --> 00:01:59,863
No more ugly white lies

52
00:01:59,863 --> 00:02:02,143
that I keep telling myself,

53
00:02:02,143 --> 00:02:04,793
this time I'm gonna try!

54
00:02:04,793 --> 00:02:07,103
I'm not just telling myself,

55
00:02:07,103 --> 00:02:09,933
The best is still yet to come!

56
00:02:09,933 --> 00:02:12,103
I keep telling myself,

57
00:02:12,103 --> 00:02:15,373
"It's darkest before the dawn!"

58
00:02:16,213 --> 00:02:18,694
I'm going backwards,

59
00:02:18,734 --> 00:02:21,044
and yet I'm made to believe.

60
00:02:21,044 --> 00:02:23,614
I'm moving forwards,

61
00:02:23,614 --> 00:02:26,614
and I'm chasing my dreams!

62
00:02:26,614 --> 00:02:28,344
But I'll be,

63
00:02:28,904 --> 00:02:31,344
just who I wanna be,

64
00:02:31,344 --> 00:02:34,536
without you controlling,

65
00:02:34,796 --> 00:02:36,786
controlling me.

66
00:02:37,426 --> 00:02:41,396
I will be seen and be heard,

67
00:02:41,396 --> 00:02:45,716
and they will hang on my every word.

68
00:02:47,386 --> 00:02:51,613
I will break free from the chains,

69
00:02:51,613 --> 00:02:55,803
and beat anything you throw in my way.

70
00:02:57,513 --> 00:03:01,681
I will be seen and be heard,

71
00:03:01,681 --> 00:03:06,111
and they will hang on my every word.

72
00:03:07,681 --> 00:03:11,712
I will break free from the chains,

73
00:03:11,712 --> 00:03:15,762
and beat anything you throw in my way.
