Sage Francis - Water Line lyrics
[Sage Francis - Water Line lyrics]
I just sit there, and let the thoughts flood
And I remind myself it's all right
It's all good
It's all love, it's not though
Cause there's a kink in the armor
A pot hole I'm sinkin' in
While I think of the drama so I stand up
I start to pace in my living room
Set my eye to the highway
Knowin' that I'll play chicken soon
There's a vanity plate, with my name on it
There's a Davy Crocket hat with a
Masonic fat cat under it
A musket rifel spittin' at my feet
They want me to dance in
The middle of the street
And I respect my elders, so I do as I'm told
But I've offset the bell curve
When I do it with soul, losin' control
Guilty feet do have rhythm
They just dance to the wrong theme
Music to amuse the villian
Instead of killin', I spare the raccoon
And start fillin' sand bags as
I stare at the moon
And let the thoughts flood
Blessed are those who are damned
When the levy broke
How many choked on the steps of a slow dance
A staircase to a hug with no hands
Accountability hung out to dry on
The line of command
We let the thoughts flood, we
Remind ourselves it's all right
It's all good
It's all love, it's not though
Cause there's a kink in the armor
A pot hole I'm sinkin' in
Sharing a drink with my father
It's a family affair, the vanity we share
The water line is rising and we
All do is stand there
The water line is rising and all
We do is stand there
And I remind myself it's all right
It's all good
It's all love, it's not though
Cause there's a kink in the armor
A pot hole I'm sinkin' in
While I think of the drama so I stand up
I start to pace in my living room
Set my eye to the highway
Knowin' that I'll play chicken soon
There's a vanity plate, with my name on it
There's a Davy Crocket hat with a
Masonic fat cat under it
A musket rifel spittin' at my feet
They want me to dance in
The middle of the street
And I respect my elders, so I do as I'm told
But I've offset the bell curve
When I do it with soul, losin' control
Guilty feet do have rhythm
They just dance to the wrong theme
Music to amuse the villian
Instead of killin', I spare the raccoon
And start fillin' sand bags as
I stare at the moon
And let the thoughts flood
Blessed are those who are damned
When the levy broke
How many choked on the steps of a slow dance
A staircase to a hug with no hands
Accountability hung out to dry on
The line of command
We let the thoughts flood, we
Remind ourselves it's all right
It's all good
It's all love, it's not though
Cause there's a kink in the armor
A pot hole I'm sinkin' in
Sharing a drink with my father
It's a family affair, the vanity we share
The water line is rising and we
All do is stand there
The water line is rising and all
We do is stand there
