Backseat Lyrics

We were sleeping in for years, letting go
Of our friends, scaring our friends
We were staying clear of closing our eyes
And our lashes intertwined
The things you find, in the backseat of your mind
What you find

And we filled each others footprints in the snow
Full of warm red alcohol
We were learning to make the world stand still
And it will, but until
Do I lie in the backseat of your mind
Do I lie just a second and we're gone
Just an imprint when we're done
Just a second and we're gone
Just an imprint when we're done

It should be forever
God told me
We're born into the wrong time...

Whatever I'm doing you're here with me
God bless you
Whatever you're doing I'm there with you
God bless you...

We're born into the wrong time

It should be forever
God told me
We're born into the wrong time...

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

This particular track holds such a strong nostalgic feel to it. I remember coming across this at 4am in the morning, and thinking about all the long lost loves of my life, reminding me of a time when I was more hopeful, young and less cynical. I personally believe that Carina Round is underrated, like many of the singers in this genre. But the song is so personal, it really does strike a note with those who listen to it.
