Can't Stop

From Asleep in the Back2001

Written by Craig Potter, Guy Garvey, Mark Potter, Pete Turner, Richard Jupp

Produced by Craig Potter, Guy Garvey, Steve Lloyd

Lyrics

Can't Stop

Can't stop thinking, I Won't stop drinking, I Need that comfort, I Don't need discipline Twilights tailing I had self belief They don't compromise This has battered me That's my history Hold this shaking frame Pull this back together What's your story? I Want to listen, I Can't fake pity, I May not sympathise Twilights tailing Try my lies for size You might swallow them While I fantasize Try my lies for size Hold this shaking frame Pull this back together
