You can almost Set your watch to it The mind intuits Every line you will One day cross Nearly traceable To the vows you make And the lines you draw I walked right in To that big tailspin And couldn't unsee What I saw You and your London eyes Blue as a vein Free and lost Perfectly ordinary The day I crossed That long road With your fast car coming Something's got to give Got to move, got to make it out alive Whether or not you decide To let the wound bleed out this time Cut the fence, turn the phrase The workaround won't take You get out while it's whole Or stay long enough to break it Staring down that purple Sun I hear your voice But I feel no one I put that symbol up to my eye Did I get your love At the cost of my mind? Shells and bones And waterfront homes Are bound to wash away In that flood Those polluted waters You keep holding off And drinking from I see you too well To let you tell me You're nothing but ruins your father made We've all stood under Those skeleton trees Hoping for shade Above, beside, beneath You'll find a way You'll find a way Something's got to give, got to move Got to make it out alive Whether or not you decide To acknowledge it this time Kill the sound, cut the wire The workaround won't take You get out while it's whole Or stay long enough to break it Standing too close to be sure Who I am or who you were But I held that infant in my arms Did I get your love At the price of my heart? The gears are grinding away And you're wasting this running water I don't trust what you say But I've come to lose my faith In everyone It's righteous as our youth and guilt It's getting harder to un-quilt I pull my body out of that crash Just banking on this feeling to pass Sometimes I can hear the river sing When the channels open up to me It's a little too narrow little too wide To call it ground, or to call it sky It's a little too narrow little too wide To bury your head in your hands this time It's a little too narrow little too wide A little too narrow a little too wide It's a little too narrow little too wide To bury your head in your hands this time
