Treading Water

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Movies like zoos Try another me and I will try another you Or put my arms around you, like I think you want me to But tell me what you're thinking I so often misconstrue [Chorus] Treading water Treading white wine Seeing borders Seeing straight lines I get these feelings that I don't have much time Always rushing, always late Always rushing, always late Always late [Verse 2] Movies like zoos I talk to missionaries when they're standing at my door They tell me what I should be reading I still can't see what for We both stand there politely, trying to change each other's core [Bridge] When other angels float by They seem likely to fall from the sky What I want is difficult I must try I see traces when you walk And other voices when you talk When you talk When other angels float by They seem likely to fall from the sky What I want is difficult I must try I see traces when you walk [Chorus] Treading water Treading white wine Seeing borders Seeing straight lines I get these feelings that I don't have much time Always rushing, always late Always rushing, always late Always late Always late I'm always rushing Always late Always late Always late Always late I'm always rushing I'm always rushing Always late
