Downtime |
I can’t jump 'cause I’m feeling heavy |
I can’t take this gravity |
I can’t dance 'cause there ain’t no music |
And these shoes are killing me |
I can’t float if there ain’t no water |
I can’t breathe if there ain’t no air |
I can’t leave 'cause there ain’t no window |
And it’s way too cold out there |
I don’t like to find myself staring into space |
I think I better stay up all night |
Or I might disappear without a single trace |
I don’t stop 'cause I keep on rolling |
Though I can’t always see |
I can’t hide 'cause the truth is showing |
And it’s got the best of me |
Every now and then I gotta shut down |
So I sit on my front porch |
Take it easy for a minute and slow my mind |
Then I get up, I jump into my car |
And head down to the ocean |
It doesn’t matter if it’s rain or shine |
I just need a little downtime |
I can’t wait if I have no patience |
I can’t hear if there ain’t no sound |
I can’t think 'cause my head’s too crowded |
I think I better get out of town |
I feel the beat of my heart going way too fast |
If I don’t put my foot down soon |
I don’t know how I’m gonna make things last |
I don’t break when my heart is aching |
I can’t sing if there ain’t no song |
I gotta rethink my situation |
I do believe that something’s wrong |
Every now and then I gotta shut down |
So I sit on my front porch |
Take it easy for a minute and slow my mind |
Then I get up, I jump into my car |
And head down to the ocean |
It doesn’t matter if it’s rain or shine |
I just need a little downtime |
I don’t like to find myself staring into space, no |
I think I better stay up all night |
Or I might disappear without a single trace |
I can’t climb if there ain’t no ladder |
I can’t deal if there ain’t no cards |
I won’t sigh 'cause it makes me sadder |
I’ve had enough and it’s way too hard |
Every now and then I gotta shut down |
So I sit on my front porch |
Take it easy for a minute and slow my mind, yeah |
Then I get up, I jump into my car |
And head down to the ocean |
It doesn’t matter if it’s rain or shine |
Step in the water and I feel just fine |
Don’t need to smoke, I don’t need no wine |
I only need a little downtime |
