running on suicide
to stop the leaks from sprouting high
from the great wall I live inside
frantically plugging cracks and holes
every one that I can find
the sun still shines on those who close their eyes
the night still falls for those who survive by the light
the faster I can operate
the less I notice and hesitate
the less I realize its too late
I went blind to love at twenty two
I just didn’t have the time to wait
the tide is coming in, be a boxer knock it down
be a fox and seduce the waters with your sexy frown
be a drunk, drink up your old town
before the waters do
drop your body on the ground
will I sabotage myself again
or let the tides run where they want
I'm too much like the Netherlands
fixing myself up for the great flood
the longer I put it off the
sooner it will come
