Handstand - 2022 Update

from Vanilla Sunshine by Gary Reid Music

/

lyrics

I taught myself how to handstand,
because I couldn't learn to get with their plan, man.
Now I'm shining here up on the bandstand
because I finally learned how to handstand.

You know that I've found the ritual,
I had to stop before it became habitual.
It turned me into such a rugged individual
when I gave into the love of the ritual.

Getting high or laying low there's always something new to know.
You are me and I am you this is true.

Now I'm on the flight path,
because I couldn't learn to do the new math.
It turned me into some kind of psychopath,
so I'm taking off on the flight path.

Everybody's gotta learn to do their own thing.
Everybody finds out where they fit.
Each day a little higher, like walking through the fire,
you'll find you're stronger at the end of it.

I'm driving on in the fast lane,
sometimes I can't even remember my last name.
People tell me that I'm gonna go insane,
if I keep speeding in the fast lane.

Getting high or laying low there's always something new to know.
You are me and I am you this is true.

I taught myself how to handstand,
because I couldn't learn to get with their plan, man.
Now I'm shining here up on the bandstand
because I finally learned how to handstand.
