Deep Water

   When you find yourself falling down
   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, compromised 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
