It's Not Up to You lyrics

I wake up

And the day feels broken

I tilt my head

I'm trying to get an angle

Cause the evening

I've always longed for

It could still happen

How do I master

The perfect day

Six glasses of water

Seven phone calls

If you leave it alone

It might just happen

Anyway

It's not up to you

Oh it never really was

It's not up to you

Oh it never really was

It's not up to you

Well it never really was

It's not up to you

If you wake up

And the day feels a-broken

Just lean into the crack

(Just lean into the crack)

And it will tremble

Ever so nicely

Notice how it sparkles

Down there

I can decide

What I give

But it's not up to me

What I get given

Unthinkable surprises

About to happen

But what they are

It's not up to you

It's not up to you

Well it never really was

It's not up to you

Oh it never really was

It's not up to you

Oh it never really was

It's not up to you

Oh, me, share

It's not up to you

It's not up to you

It's not up to you

Oh, it never really was

It's not up to you

Well it never really was

It's not up to you

It's not up to you

It's not up to you

It's not up to you

There's too much

Clinging

To peak

There's too much

Pressure
