Guardians of the Slow Lane - Just Can't Turn It Around (feat. Double Mumbo Jumbo) Lyrics

Speeding down the steepest hill
I doubt it could be worse
Brakes on, tyres gone
Trying to find reverse
I'm in too deep, the hills too steep
I just can't seem to slow
No way back on a one way track
And I think that you should know that

I just can't turn it around
You're heaven sent but I'm hell bound
And I just can't turn it around
Today the king of fools I'm crowned
Yesterday you text "the end"
And promised we could still be friends
But I just can't turn this thing around

Falling through the atmosphere
With a threadbare parachute
Pull the chord or fall on my sword
Since you gave me the boot
Chute unfolds, it's full of holes
I plummet to the ground
When I reach the end I still descend
'Cos I just can't turn around

No, I just can't turn it around
You're heaven sent but I'm hell bound
And I just can't turn it around
Today the king of fools I'm crowned
Yesterday you text "the end"
And promised we could still be friends
But I just can't turn this thing around

Just when I was falling in, you took yourself away
You always seem to worry what your friends are gonna say
You've got to find some bravery and do it for yourself
With an attitude like that you'll end up left upon the shelf

Running up the steepest hill, I'm finally slowing down
There's this girl, she's such a pearl, I'm meeting her in town
But then you call, you want it all
You make me think once more
But you had your chance to make me dance
And I'm heading out the door

And you just can't turn it around
You are lost but I am found
And you just can't turn it around
Today the queen of hearts is crowned
Today I text to you "the end"
But promised we could still be friends
Coz you just can't turn this thing around
