Cold Cold Water

from Water To Land by Jake Shane

/

lyrics

Between the walls of the cave
And the walls of the factory
Something’s gone missing
Something ain’t satisfactory
I’ve forgotten how to listen
I’ve forgotten how to see
I don’t know the trials of my mother
I don’t know how to navigate at sea
And cold cold water
Is crashing at my feet

What’s my quality of life
What statistic will I be
Everybody’s nervous
Everybody’s taking speed
Medicine to stay up
Medicine to go to sleep
They charge you here for everything
Won’t even bury you for free
And this cold cold water
Is nipping at my knees

Oh the motions of the planets
Oh the wobble of the world
Oh the axis and the allies
Someone’s arm around my girl
Sometimes I question everything
Sometimes I just sit and curl
Up for a while on the floor
As the cold cold water
Knocks down my door

Now I’m measuring the shadows
It ain’t looking good
I’m well beyond the shallows
Where all is understood
No one here to save me
No one even said they would
But that cold cold water
Is starting to feel good

Oh the motions of the planets
Oh the wobble of the world
Oh the axis and the allies
Someone’s arm around my girl
Sometimes I question everything
Sometimes I just sit and curl
Up for a while on the floor
As the cold cold water
Knocks down my door

Between the walls of the cave
And the walls of the factory
