Stop For A Minute - Keane, K'NAAN

Oh, whoa, oh, oh

Oh, whoa, oh, oh

Some days, feel my soul has left my body

Feel I’m floating high above me

Like I’m looking down upon me (Oh, whoa, Oh whoa)

Start sinking, every time I get to thinking

It’s easier to keep on moving

Never stop to let the truth in (Oh, whoa, Oh whoa)

Sometimes I feel like it’s all been done

Sometimes I feel like I’m the only one

Sometimes I wanna change everything I’ve ever done

I’m too tired to fight and yet too scared to run

And if I stop for a minute

I think about things I really don’t wanna know

And I’m the first to admit it

Without you I’m a liner stranded in an ice flow

I feel like a thief who has no faith

Made immortal by the grade

Of the drugs he took that day (Oh, whoa, Oh whoa)

Sinking in the pain he’s been inflicting

Yet he’s feeling like the victim

Just a horoscope’s to blame (Oh, whoa, Oh whoa)

Sometimes I feel like a little lost child

Sometimes I feel like the chosen one

Sometimes I wanna shout out 'til everything goes quiet

Sometimes I wonder why I was ever born

And if I stop for a minute

I think about things really I don’t wanna know

And I’m the first to admit it

Without you I’m child and so wherever you go

I will follow

And baby you are just beautiful from crown to your cuticles

You held down my two sons, you never frown when duty calls

You know me, I gave you more than you can handle

But you still keep a handle on it, even when I take something beautiful and

vandal on it

No more females?

Well how come my emails got notes on a scandal

It’s like Eve with the apple

A priest in the chapel

Overcome by the devil’s tackle

I’m still shackled the bad til I know

I’m such a hassle every time I let my thoughts go

I get baffled so I hardly pause

I just crossed seas with these gnarly broads

Cos it hurts me just to see what I finally lost

So I guess I’m just a fiend

Consumed by the scene

The stage and the screens

Where it’s just me and Keane

And if I stop for a minute

I think about things I really don’t wanna know

So I guess I’m just a fiend

Consumed by the scene

And I’m the first to admit it

Without you I’m a liner stranded in an ice floe

The stage and the screens

Where it’s just me and Keane
