Too many problems, the world can't solve
Too many people, no-one wants to be involved

Keep rearranging, it's all the same
Always saying, someone else is to blame
Look all around me, who's standin' tall
Hold tight, no-one's gonna answer your call
Put up our boundaries, we build our walls
It's alright, no-one's gonna change us at all

[Chorus]
Time's passin' us by, we have our reason
No-one wants to try, we have our reason
Questions askin' why, we have our reason
Problems still arise, we have our reason, for

Back off!

You're so together, you fall apart
You never miss, when you're shootin' straight for the heart
You see it your way, I'll see it mine
Well, conversation is a useless change of line

[Chorus]

Well, back off, well, back off
In the age of the modern man
We see the problems, we don't really understand
Back off, well, back off...
