Control - Bernhoft

Have you ever?

Ever had to stand and just watch

While your life was like a game on your x-box?

Welcome to the club, I’m the president

We’re almost like a nation of fools

Where public spending’s cut down to naught

We’re clutching at invisible straws

And no one’s here to tell where they lead to

How to tell us who’s in

Control

I’m not in control

I seem to be but no

Our lives are a river where we

Are swimming frantically

Belly-up just trying to obtain control

We fail to take control

We fail to swim ashore

It’s all up in the air and I’d

Much rather go down river

Than go down like a lead ballon

The bottom’s never the place to be

Why not surf on the surface with me

It’s easy and won’t ruin your make-up

Don’t bother with the deep end anymore

I got happiness served on a plate for you

That old bliss on a table for two

And nothing in the water to weigh you down

Just trow out all your

I never claimed the answer

But I know what it’s not

Let go and let in a little

Modulation to lift you up
