A handful of days Lyrics by ​stone deluxe

2022

[Chorus]
Only got a handful of days
And it’s just us, there’s no more troops on the way
Better man your post if you staking your claim
‘Cause your claim’s so fucked if you’re off your aim
But we got a handle on things
Gotta look to the past for what the future might bring
Let us never end up like puppets on strings
Rather cut my lifeline than see who sings
Only got a handful of days
Gotta spend ‘em wisely
Can’t look down on me so high and mighty
When your horse just follows blindly
But we got a handle on things
Hands so bare, not wearing no rings
Doesn’t feel right, when to life I cling
And to life I cling
[Bridge]
Feeling so damn gorgeous, so damn pretty
Better not blink, or you’ll most def’ miss me
Got a handful of days, one hand on the whiskey
Handling plays while I’m chuffed like a chimney
Swear I’m so damn depressed, and I’m so damn uplifted
Still the best dressed, and there’s no competition
Small silver linings and slivers of riches
Got a handful of hopes like I hope I can fix this
[Verse 1]
Man our time with each other so limited innit?
There’s something that’s making itself so apparent
No truths I’m omitting, I strive for awareness
Alumni of time I spent searching for fairness
Deluxe, no witches could hex me
Nowhere on this planet I’ve found to be empty
Yet hollowness lurks like it’s plotting against me
I live with it, life out it’s way just to test me
Flying colors as always, top of the line model
Now it’s been a long day, time is so borrowed
See you at the crossroads
Hope I see you at the crossroads
Pack it up, there ain’t shit getting left behind us
No ID if they ask who I was
No flying by on sort of, kind of
Clear when the clock says time
[Chorus]
Only got a handful of days
And it’s just us, there’s no more troops on the way
Better man your post if you staking your claim
‘Cause your claim’s so fucked if you’re off your aim
But we got a handle on things
Gotta look to the past for what the future might bring
Let us never end up like puppets on strings
Rather cut my lifeline than see who sings
Only got a handful of days
Gotta spend ‘em wisely
Can’t look down on me so high and mighty
When your horse just follows blindly
But we got a handle on things
Hands so bare, not wearing no rings
Doesn’t feel right, when to life I cling
And to life I cling
[Verse 2]
Can we get a round of applause?
Ladies, gentleman, ghosts, gods
For those of us that have come and then gone
You did great now you better get lost (get lost)
All these actors and actresses
Sleep on a cot, like I slept on the mattresses
Tightrope still under me, best get to balancing
Still take a sip from some mofucking chalices
Play my part and bow out like goodnight folks
Tryna learn these things that the mic knows
Tell me you won’t, but I know that you might, though
Roll the credits like dope in a spiral
Classical tropes, never dropped a cliche
Got a handful of hopes and a handful of days
And a candle and smoke and a ball and a chain
Handful of smoke, and I hope that it stays
[Outro]
Feeling so damn gorgeous, so damn pretty
Got a handful of days, one hand on the whiskey
Feeling so damn gorgeous, so damn pretty
Got a handful of days, one hand on the whiskey
