lyrics

Oxidizing in the rain I’m growing weak but who’s to blame
Whispers are retuned unanswered, silence is the greatest shame
My home is colder now no one deigned to stay around
To open doors to open mind but who will lead the deaf and blind
A new revision churns impatient scolding me for wasting time
While the rains unrelentlessly scream and shout I’m calling out now
Who is gonna bail me out?
The water level rises fast it’s dangerous so bail me out
I can’t know if I’ll stay afloat for very long so bail me out
I’m adored, but I’m facing towards an empty shore so what have I been drowning for
And what’s in store for this old pair of broken oars
Left adrift and hardly missed and functionless for evermore
We’ll have to wait to take the bait, which we create by tempting fate
