Apartment 26's, "Backwards"
Misheard Lyrics:
Everything's going backwards
Nothing's what it seems
I don't wait for my nightmares
Smash the mirror, smash the dream.
Nothing's what it seems
I don't wait for my nightmares
Smash the mirror, smash the dream.
Original Lyrics:
Everything's gone backwards!
Nothing's what it seems!
I awake from my nightmare
Smash the mirror! Smash the dream!
Nothing's what it seems!
I awake from my nightmare
Smash the mirror! Smash the dream!
