The Turtle Project - Beyond My Control

Why am I always trying to justify
The things that are out of my control ?
I gotta learn to let it go
Understand that there's problems
That as much as I want to
I know deep down I'm never gonna solve
'Cause I'm just a solitary voice
Lost in the void of this chaos and the noise
And I try, I try to detach myself
But it's getting so hard and the more that I fight it
The more that I realise there's nowhere to hide
Anymore

It,s beyond my control and I could
Scream at the top of my lungs
I could protest all year long
But it's beyond my control
And I could shout as loud as I want
But my words won't penetrate a closed mind
So what's the point?

So now I look to all the kindness in the world
And draw comfort from their selflessness
And put things in perspective once again
'Cause I know it's easy to forget
The good times when the bad times
Are followed by bad times so relentlessly
So I scour these rainy streets
For a smile on a face or a friendly little wave
Or any little sign of the goodness in humanity
It makes me be who I wanna be
Instead of clawing at a wall that's
Never gonna fall
I should know by now, what will be, will be

'Cause it,s beyond my control and I could
Scream at the top of my lungs
I could protest all year long
But it's beyond my control
And I can shout as loud as I want
But my words won't penetrate a closed mind
So whats the point?
