Lyrics for Counting Backwards

Counting backwards, I count you in I don't remember him I don't remember Counting backwards, I count you in I don't remember him I don't remember In time I rope you in again I try and turn you back through him I built a tower in my bones I spill the mortar through my home Counting backwards, I count you in I don't remember him I don't remember him I don't remember Don't let your heartbeat keep you safe No telling what keeps me awake One hundred fingerprints I hear A hundred linger in my ear Counting backwards, I count you in I don't remember him I don't remember Ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah Ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah Ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah (measure fortune killing time) Ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah (measure fortune killing time) Ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah (measure fortune killing time) Ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah
