Chalk White Lyrics
Pieces of you, spread all over, torn in two
Forward/Backward
Save yourself, from nothing, from no one
Forward/Backward
You better get yourself out of it
You better get yourself out of it
You think you're right, but it ain't right
You think it's right, but it ain't right
Cease the slide, use the talent God gave you
Forward/Backward
You better get yourself out of it
You better get yourself out of it
You think you're right, but it ain't right
You think it's right, but it ain't right
Forward/Backward
Forward/Backward
Forward/Backward
Forward/Backward
You better get yourself out of it
You think it's right, but it ain't right
Forward/Backward
You better get yourself out of it
You think it's right, but it ain't right
Forward/Backward

Cocaine?
It seems as if he is being pulled between something
I can relate so much to these lyrics.. I think everyone goes through a phase where they're unsure of what they want to do in the future in a bad situation that they're put themselves in. When the lyrics refer to a 'you' i'm thinking it has if it's what his mind is telling him.
The whole song talks about someone who is messed up, who is in pieces after doing something wrong.. and this person knows that he has done something wrong, deliberately. He probably feels useless and everything, but knows that he has something to contribute to the world...he just needs to get out of his bad situation. It's a good song, really uplifting.
I reckon this is the best song by these guys its cool. Anywho I think there is a situation thats happened and your torn between the 2 sides and he is going backwards and forwards in his decions on whats right or not.
Forward/Backward, you better get yourself out of it.
You take two steps forward and two steps back, and you should get yourself somewhere other than staying in the middle.
