Back to Back Lyrics
The whole world is sleeping
I still lie awake up in my bed
As I came round to thinking
That I don’t want nobody else
I want to be with you
And it kills me to say
That I want to be with you
That is just the way, it’s just the way now
Sleeping with my back to yours
Back to back, back to back whats to ….
Sleeping with my back to yours
Don’t walk away don’t walk away
When the whole world is thinking
That I must be a friend (?)
The point that they’re missing
Is that I don’t want nobody else
I want to be with you
And it kills me to say
That I want to be with you
That is just the way, it’s just the way.
Sleeping with my back to yours
Back to back, back-to-back whats to (?)
Sleeping with my back to yours
Don’t walk away, don’t walk away
Back to back, back to back
Back to back, and back to back
Back to back, back to back
I struggle
Sleeping with my back to yours
Back to back and back to back its (?)
Sleeping with my back to yours
Don’t walk away, don’t
I still lie awake up in my bed
As I came round to thinking
That I don’t want nobody else
I want to be with you
And it kills me to say
That I want to be with you
That is just the way, it’s just the way now
Back to back, back to back whats to ….
Sleeping with my back to yours
Don’t walk away don’t walk away
That I must be a friend (?)
The point that they’re missing
Is that I don’t want nobody else
I want to be with you
And it kills me to say
That I want to be with you
That is just the way, it’s just the way.
Back to back, back-to-back whats to (?)
Sleeping with my back to yours
Don’t walk away, don’t walk away
Back to back, and back to back
Back to back, back to back
Sleeping with my back to yours
Back to back and back to back its (?)
Sleeping with my back to yours
Don’t walk away, don’t

auch a beautiful song. i first heard the remix by active child and i thought the original couldn't be as perfect. but i was hugely mistaken. MIND BLOWING.

should be:
When the whole world is thinking That I must be "DEPRESSED"
not sure about the rest..
fucking amazing song <3
I also think the first verse is just "i still lie up" in my bed...

I think this is about Max being with someone he doesn't like, but he doesn't want to be with anyone else because he actually does like that person. if that makes sense
'Back to back, back to back whats to ….' Should be, 'Back to back, back to back we're stronger'
Seems to me like he really does love this girl, but he doesn't trust her because she has hurt him in the past...maybe she cheated on him. He's digusted with himself because he loves her too much to let her go, but he's lost his pride because he's decided he wants to be with her no matter what. He's sleeping with his back to hers because he's guarding himself from her until he can trust her again. He says "don't walk away" because he wants to work things out with her and doesn't want to lose her.

I have kind of a crazy interpretation.
I think the song is about a drug addiction, but he is personifying his drug as his lover.
But in order for that to be true, some of the lyrics on this site have to be wrong.
I don't think he says I still lie awake in bed, I think he says I still light up in my bed. (drugs)
Back to back, back to back were strung out. (drugs)
He's not saying that I must be a friend, hes saying that I must be depressed.
His friends think he's depressed because he's addicted to heroine, but really he just wants to be on heroine.
He keeps his heroine on his nightstand, hence sleeping with his back to it.
Or maybe I'm just on drugs...
