Lilly Hiatt - Off Track lyrics

There's a beat upstairs when I say my prayers There's a ticking in the core of my gut I hear my father's fight when I strum at night I just wasn't raised to be someone I can start to see that the veins aren't weak It's just a blue blood job She's got it too, she's a lot like you Her heart drops So tell me when you get a grip Tell me when you get it back You can let it slip it's a better trip, right off track There's a moment kid, you were sitting at And for a while I could not sleep Then I realized it was waiting in the dark for me It's a world of pain a very real thing You're a better girl right now I'll bide my luck, it's just not enough Calm down So tell me when you get a grip Tell me when you get it back You can let it slip it's a better trip, right off track Don't you shed a tear I'll let you under my wing It's a maze up here But the air's a dream You don't have to keep all the cards stacked
