Manchester Orchestra - My Backwards Walk Lyrics

Satanic cross🤔!!!

You should've known knee-deep in it,
I can make a guess knee-deep in it all.
But it's just a guess knee-deep in it,
You can't prove a thing 'till you've seen it all.


You're the shit and I'm knee-deep in it.

U'r the shit and i'm deep kneed in it..

I feel like all these songs on this tribute album are song from the podium of the church at funeral. They are nice, but don't have much to add, like they are holding back as not to eclipse the originals. They are stripped down from Scott's original, which doest't add much. Sorry Its a nice gesture and much kudos, but Scott would have loved full force. Don't mean to be a downer. Love the effort and the meaning.

Joseph McCafferty scott heard all the songs and approves of them before he passed.

Rest now Scott Hutchison, you'll always be remembered 😙

Fitting tribute. R.I.P. Scott.

This is brilliantly heart wrenching.

Like I totally understand the first person to downvote this - because there's something novel about being the first person to click the downthumb and there's often no meaning to that sort of behavior - but who are the other seven assholes?

beautiful song, bravi ragazzi !!

Love this !!!

Lucky to see them in PDX a few years back...wonderful show.

Thanks Andy and remember you "you calm down Andy". Akron Ohio Right Away Great Captain era. You nailed this one!

Beautiful. You are so missed Scott

The vocals are giving me Bright Eyes feels. 🥰

I'm working on my backwards walk
Walking with no shoes or socks
And the time rewinds to the end of May
I wish we'd never met, then met today

I'm working on my faults and cracks
Filling in the blanks and gaps
And when I write them out they don't make sense
I need you to pencil in the rest

I'm working on drawing a straight line
And I'll draw until I get one right
It's bold and dark girl, can't you see
I done drawn a line between you and me

I'm working on erasing you
Just don't have the proper tools
I get hammered, forget that you exist
There's no way I'm forgetting this

I'm working hard on walking out
Shoes keep sticking to the ground
My clothes won't let me close the door
These trousers seem to love your floor

I been working on my backwards walk
There's nowhere else for me to go
Except back to you just one last time
Say yes before I change my mind

Say yes before I...
You're the shit and I'm knee-deep in it x8

While this is lovely, the absence of Scott's voice really hits hard.

Non of the covers really have the same energy and passion behind their voice that the originals have

they're not supposed to. They're covers.

@Usama Ali covers can still have energy bub

I love this song (and the album as a whole) so much but ever since Scott left I can barely bring myself to listen to it. RIP.

It's truly awful that he's gone, but the best thing we can do is honor and keep his memory alive by listening to his art and the tribute covers from his friends and loved ones. It's probably what he would have wanted.

this is so heavy, there's a giant knot in my throat

For sure Scott would love these Tiny Changes he inspired.

I am still grieving. I found out much later. Very fortunate to have seen them live in Cleveland, Ohio

Rest in peace my lovely friend :)

Oh man.

those drums at the end!

Debuted in my weekly personal indie chart on June 30, 2019 edition :)

Beaut of cover Man O. I'm sure he agrees. Love the song, original and cover... Cheers bards.

This sounds like view from the voyager (trailer music from interstellar lol)

Oh my...

Powerful and infinite

This makes me want to cry

This hits so fucking hard. Amazing!

Ahhh...crap. I'm missing Scott again.

Perfection

One word - WOW

Hits me so very deeply every time I listen, it simply touches the soul. God bless you Scott this world is truly lacking without you.x

Wow this made me actually like Manchester Orchestra. That's hard to do. That's the power of Frightened Rabbit

You're the shit and I'm knee-deep in it

Beautiful and passionate! The kind of song you hear in your ears and in your heart.

my favourite band, covering my favourite song, stumbled across by accident.

No words...

This is such a beautiful tribute, Scott will never be forgotten. 🖤

364 likes and it was just uploaded today. Yeah that speaks volumes about what FR and MCO means to all of us beaten and broken souls walking this earth and trying to be the best broken versions of ourselves. I haven't cried in a long time because I forgot how to or just have become so numb to being human but this daily dance has broken me again. So thank you..

@Alain Hus Hope things are okay with you friend..

Andrew Kozlowski Thank you so much man

@Alain Hus It renews my faith in the human dance when people drop their guard and decide to connect with others that are in the same place or are willing to show their vulnerability.. Let's me know I'm not alone. The simple act of a reply makes my day and gives me strength. Thanks man. Scott's music made this all possible.

@Andrew Kozlowski It really did and again, I feel the same. Pride is a damn shame because it prevents us from getting closer and helping each other out. Let's spread love as much as possible man! RIP Scott

@Andrew Kozlowski Hey man, don't feel alone in this! Most of us here have been where you've been. It's been five months since you posted your original comment. Let us know you're okay!

❤️❤️❤️

Great version of this song.

I wish they would go ahead and release this, I am ready to buy the whole CD!

I'm so excited about this record! So far I love every cover. This is so beautiful and precious

Wow, what an amazing version of this song! Tears come to my eyes every time I realize what we have all lost. No one is perfect, for anyone who struggles with depression there is help out there. Please seek it!

God damn, the world has lost someone truly special. Jesus what a loss.

Gorgeous.

Tingles. This song hits me everytime. Scott was my favourite lyricist and his voice was so real. The world lost a great musician and from every interview I've ever seen a good man. This world can be a lonely one, don't be scared to share the love.

Who's Scott?

@Jason Richards He was the lead singer of Frightened Rabbit, and died May last year. This is a cover of his song to celebrate his life as one year has passed.

@Jason Scislaw thanks

Just heard about this album Saturday at the Bad Books show. So pleased to find this so quickly after.

oh scott, i miss you. i cherish the time i got to see you guys live in minneapolis. this cover is beautiful

Exquisite

weeping. as expected <3

Absolutely stunning. My heart hurts.

Amazing cover.

Great cover, one of my favorite songs!

Sleep Easy Scott. We miss you.

Every time a FR song comes up on shuffle, I pause to consider if it's too much for me right now or just perfect

Andy did a cover of this song the week Scott left us. I wanted this version before then. I’m so grateful to find it exists now.

Scott è con noi

Scott would be so proud.

thankfully he got to hear these covers.

All.day rotation.

Great cover!

Great cover.

So great, chills at the end, loving everything I’ve heard so far

Its both gut wrenching and beautiful.
