Standing On The Water |
| Why do we surround ourselves with houses and big cars |
| Trying to make out we got it made |
| When nothing really belongs to us We’re only passing through |
| We’re part of a maskerade |
| When you are standing on the water |
| Talking to the walls |
| Making so much matter |
| Out of no matter at all |
| Got to get a hold of ourselves |
| So easy to fall |
| Standing on the water |
| Talking to the walls |
| We act we look around us We see trouble everywhere |
| Thieving money air that we breath |
| I know we would like to hang out |
| In the country for a while |
| There is something that you just can’t believe |
| When we’re standing on the water |
| Talking to the walls |
| Making so much matter |
| That’s of no matter at all |
| Got to get a hold of ourselves |
| So easy to fall |
| When we’re standing on the water |
| Talking to the walls |
| So many pictures looking at us through a smile |
| Making us want things we don’t need |
| So many people telling us just what to do What we are and what we should be When we’re standing on the water |
| Talking to the walls |
| Making so much matter |
| That’s of no matter at all |
| Got to get a hold of ourselves |
| So easy to fall |
| Standing on the water |
| Talking to the walls |
| Talking to the walls |
| Talking to the walls |
