deep water Lyrics

you find yourself falling down / your hopes in the sky / but your heart like grape gum on the ground

and you try to find yourself / in the abstractions of religion / and the cruelty of everyone else / and you wake up to realize / your standard of living somehow got stuck on survive

when you're standing in deep water / and you're bailing yourself out with a straw / and when you're drowning in deep water / and you wake up making love to a wall / well it's these little times that help to remind / it’s nothing without love

you wake up to realize your only friend / has never been yourself or anyone who cared in the end / that's when suddenly everything fades or falls away / 'cause the chains which once held us / are only the chains which we've made

when you're standing in deep water / and you're bailing yourself out with a straw / and when you're drowning in deep water / and you wake up making love to a wall / well it's these little times that help to remind / it's nothing without love, love, love / it's nothing without love

we've compromised our pride / and sacrificed our health / we have to demand more / not of each other / but more from ourselves / 'cause when you're standing in deep water / and you're bailing yourself out with a straw
when you're drowning in deep water / and you wake up making love to a wall / well it's these little times that help to remind / it's nothing without love, love, love / it's nothing without love / it's nothing without love
