| Song | Slip Out The Back (Album Version) |
| Artist | Fort Minor |
| Album | The Rising Tied |
| [00:20.170] | You know me, I used to get caught up in everyday life |
| [00:22.720] | Tried to make it through my day so i could sleep at night |
| [00:25.680] | Tried to figure out my way through the maze |
| [00:28.290] | Of rights and wrongs, but like you used to say |
| [00:30.390] | Nothing feels like it's really worth it |
| [00:32.610] | Forget perfect, i'm trying not to be worthless |
| [00:34.540] | Since i last saw you i been lookin for a purpose |
| [00:37.320] | Well i met this kid who thought like i did |
| [00:39.810] | He had a weird way of lookin at it |
| [00:41.680] | This is what he said |
| [00:42.930] | |
| [00:43.430] | Slip out the back before they know you were there |
| [00:44.740] | And at the worst you'll see nobody cares |
| [00:47.470] | Cos you dont wana be around when it all goes down |
| [00:50.430] | Even heroes know when to be scared |
| [00:52.970] | Slip out the back before they know you were there |
| [00:55.760] | And at the worst you'll see nobody cares |
| [00:58.320] | Cos you dont wana be around when it all goes down |
| [01:01.90] | Even heroes know when to be scared |
| [01:02.680] | |
| [01:03.430] | I dont remember where i met him or remember his name |
| [01:06.220] | But he walked funny like he was too big for his frame |
| [01:08.810] | Just over five foot but he weighed a buck fifty |
| [01:11.480] | And what he said just seemed so right it stuck with me |
| [01:14.460] | Listen its like poker you can play your best |
| [01:16.870] | But you got to know when to fold your cards and take a rest |
| [01:19.560] | And know when to hold your cards and hold your breath |
| [01:22.470] | And hope that nobody else is stacking the deck because |
| [01:25.490] | I dont need to tell you that life isnt fair, it doesnt care |
| [01:27.880] | It arbitrarily cuts off your air, and like you i want someone to say its okay |
| [01:32.830] | But in the truest parts of our hearts everybody's afraid |
| [01:35.640] | But just underappreciated and overwhelmed |
| [01:38.330] | Fighting so hard to hide our fear that were scaring ourselves |
| [01:40.880] | You understand when im saying that you always did |
| [01:43.490] | But its different in the words of a cowardly kid |
| [01:44.360] | |
| [01:46.630] | Slip out the back before they know you were there |
| [01:49.240] | And at the worst you'll see nobody cares |
| [01:51.840] | Cos you dont wana be around when it all goes down |
| [01:54.500] | Even heroes know when to be scared |
| [01:57.440] | Slip out the back before they know you were there |
| [02:00.960] | And at the worst you'll see nobody cares |
| [02:02.350] | Cos you dont wana be around when it all goes down |
| [02:05.20] | Even heroes know when to be scared |
| [02:05.920] | |
| [02:07.370] | Im no hero, you remember how i was, you know |
| [02:10.710] | All i ever did was worry, feeling out of control |
| [02:12.640] | To the point where everything was going end over end |
| [02:15.540] | Im spinning around in circles again |
| [02:17.630] | This is where you come in |
| [02:19.430] | All of this to explain to you why |
| [02:20.730] | I had to separate myself away from yesterday's life |
| [02:22.870] | Please remember this isn't how i hoped it would be |
| [02:26.70] | But i had to protect you from me |
| [02:28.390] | Thats why i slipped out the back before you knew i was there |
| [02:31.660] | I know you felt unprepared |
| [02:33.950] | But every single time i was around i just bring you down |
| [02:36.740] | And i could tell that it was time to be scared |
| [02:39.240] | Thats why i slipped out the back before you knew i was there |
| [02:42.400] | And i know the way i left wasnt fair |
| [02:44.770] | I didnt want to be around just to bring you down |
| [02:47.600] | Im not a hero but dont think i didnt care |
| [00:20.170] | You know me, I used to get caught up in everyday life |
