Jewel - Deep Water Lyrics
When you find yourself falling downYour hopes in the sky but your heart like grape gum on the groundAnd you try to scrape yourself upBut you keep seeping out like cheap gin through a broken cupAnd you try to find yourselfIn the abstractions of religion and the cruelty of everyone elseAnd when youre standing in deep waterAnd youre bailing yourself out with a strawWhen youre drowning in deep waterAnd you wake up making love to a wallWell its these little times that help to remindIts nothing without loveLove, love, its nothing without loveIts nothing without loveWhen you realize your only friendHas never been yourself or anyone who cared in the endAnd you wake up to see all your dreams have been compromisedOur standard of living somehow got stuck on surviveThats when suddenly everything fades or falls awayCause the chains which once held us are only the chains which weveMadeWe sacrifice our pride, compromised our healthWe must demand more, not of each other, but more from ourselvesCause when youre standing in deep waterAnd youre bailing yourself out with a strawWhen youre drowning in deep waterAnd you wake up making love to a wallWell its these little times that help to remindIts nothing without loveLove, love, its nothing without loveIts nothing without love
