Kilcher Jewel - Deep Water lyrics

Your hopes in the sky but your heart like grape gum on the ground And you try to scrape yourself up But you keep seeping out like cheap gin through a broken cup And you try to find yourself In the abstractions of religion and the cruelty of everyone else And 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 When you realize your only friend has never been yourself or anyone who cared in the end And you wake up to see all your dreams have been compromised Our standard of living somehow got stuck on survive That's when suddenly everything fades or falls away Cause the chains which once held us are only the chains which we've made We sacrifice our pride, sacrifice our health We must 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
