about

Demo track homemade by Vinny ILL
Beautiful Lyrics by the great and amazing Martin Jacklin

lyrics

Can't control the future
Can't control someone else
Can't control our feelings
Can't put them back on the shelf

All we can do is stay on top of ourselves

She sells she shells
rocking them to and fro
His foots where his mouth should be
pushing the boat out too far

All we can do is stay on top of ourselves

Watch yourself repeating
Pretending to and seeming
Maybe you're only dreaming
And were peeling off the ceiling

All we can do is stay on top of ourselves

Never learn or remember
The lessons of the other
In futures we hammer
retreats into corners

All we can do is stay on top of ourselves

Can't control the future
Can't control someone else
Can't control our feelings
Can't put them back on the shelf

All we can do is stay on top of ourselves
It's all we can do to stay on top of ourselves
