Waterkill |
| It isn’t great tryin' to breathe |
| From the bottom of the fate lake |
| I feel the vibes as feet of Christ go by Large and small and fast they fall |
| Under meltin' summer sky |
| Prayin' for my dear breath |
| Don’t want to face my fear of death |
| Dredge and fork and dive and fish |
| For everyone’s best wish |
| But still with my eyes and ears |
| Without breath, even still |
| I like it down here in waterkill |
| Without breath, even still |
| I like it down here in waterkill |
| Separate from the shoal of unserious |
| Who fed upon my dwindlin' life |
| Robbed what dim and dyin' soul that I might |
| Settled in the nervous core |
| Days down, recollectin' youth before |
| Holdin' my dear self |
| Don’t want to feel my flesh unfelt |
| Slowest tortoise, fastest shark |
| I watch from the bottom of the lake dark |
| Slowest tortoise, fastest shark |
| I watch from the bottom of the lake dark |
