Taking On Water
On a sailboat I am slowly Floating nowhere Lost the memories Of where I am and why Black ocean churning A million stars Are burning Planetariums were right About the sky Once upon a day I set off on a journey Wishing on the wind Take me far from home Now I'm on the waves And I'm taking on water Hard to see I won't always be alone There was a time When August sun was high And centered on me But it did me on my back And settled down SongtexteUsed to scream Through the land Used to size it In my head But it fell Behind the line That leads to sky Once upon a day I set off on a journey Wishing on the wind Take me far from home Now I'm on the waves And I'm taking on water Hard to see I won't always be alone Inside this storm Whipping in the wind My sail is torn In other words The ends Are never not my own Hard to see I won't always be alone I'm a sailboat out of here Slowly floating nowhere Then someday I'll wash upon Someone else's shore (Thanks to Rafael for these lyrics) Aus Songtexte Mania
