lyrics

Off the Wall
Rick Parnell

It’s only gravity
Holding me down
Depending on perspective
I am lost or I am found
If no one hears me
Did I really make that sound?

And who will answer the call?
Who wants to put me
back up on the wall?

CHORUS:
I’m off the wall
No one hears me when I speak
Learning to crawl
Got no reason left to drink
I’m off the wall
It doesn’t matter what I think
Please hold all my calls
I’m off the wall

It’s not a tragedy
When you feel the need to fold
But if you stop laughing then
Be sure you’re getting old
If you can’t take the heat
Try standing in the cold

Please don’t answer the call
I’m happy here
off the wall

Chorus
