Deep Water

You find yourself falling down
Your hopes in the sky
But your heart like grape gum on the ground

And you try to find yourself
In the abstractions of religion
And the cruelty of everyone else

And you wake up to realize
Your standard living 
Somehow got stuck on survive

When you're standing in deep water
And you're bailing yourself out with a straw
And when your drowning in deep water
And you wake up making love to a wall

Well it's these little times 
That help to remind
It's nothing without love

To realize your only friend
Has never been yourself 
Or anyone who cared in the end

That's when everything fades or falls away
'Cause chains which once held us 
Are only the chains which we've made

When you're standing in deep water
And you're bailing yourself out with a straw
And when your drowning in deep water
And you wake up making love to a wall

Well it's these little 
Times that help to remind,
It's nothing without love
Love, love
It's nothing without love

We've compromised our pride
We've sacrificed our health
We must demand more not from each other
But more from ourselves

'Cause when you're standing in deep water
And you're bailing yourself out with a straw
And when you're drowning in deep water
And you wake up making love to a wall

Well it's these little times 
That help to remind
It's nothing without love
Love, love
It's nothing without love
It's nothing without love
Love, love, love

Nothing without love, without love
Nothing without love, without love
Nothing without love, without love
Nothing without love, without love
Nothing without love, without love
