Water Off a Duck's Back

Look at me, sitting here all alone
In the back of my car with nowhere to go
Fifteen miles from here to home
I laugh out loud at the state I'm in
Pretending this six string is a friend
Writing duets with the wind

Oh I hear trees singing
In between the
Screams of all the cars that shoot past
And start to wonder
If it's gone too far

'Cause we
We get so caught up in the little things
That we forget what's really necessary
Take a step back
Let it run off your skin
Like water off a duck's back
You won't feel a thing
You can choose to let it go
Don't let it win, win

I know my battery is dry
But these dirty fingers have more to write
I'm stressing over wasted time
The clock keeps ticking either way
It's out of my control, but all the same
I'm feeling crushed under the weight of it all

But I'm somehow calm
As the world spins on
And I dwell upon mistakes from the past
I gotta remind myself
I've come this far

'Cause we
We get so caught up in the little things
That we forget what's really necessary
Take a step back
Let it run off your skin
Like water off a duck's back
You won't feel a thing
You can choose to let it go
Don't let it win, win
You can choose to let it go
Don't let it win, win

Look at me, still sitting here alone
My guitar and I are just turning ghosts
From distant memories to notes

'Cause we
We get so caught up in the little things
That we forget what's really necessary
Take a step back
Let it run off your skin
Like water off a duck's back
You won't feel a thing
You can choose to let it go
Don't let it win, win
You can choose to let it go
Don't let it win, win
