Deep Water Lyrics - Singles - Kilcher Jewel

Your hopes in the sky but your heart like grape gum on the ground 

And you try to scrape yourself up 

But you keep seeping out like cheap gin through a broken cup 

And you try to find yourself 

In the abstractions of religion and the cruelty of everyone else 

And when you're standing in deep water 

And you're bailing yourself out with a straw 

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 

When you realize your only friend 

has never been yourself or anyone who cared in the end 

And you wake up to see all your dreams have been compromised 

Our standard of living somehow got stuck on survive 

That's when suddenly everything fades or falls away 

Cause the chains which once held us are only the chains which we've 

made 

We sacrifice our pride, sacrifice our health 

We must demand more, not of each other, but more from ourselves 

Cause when you're standing in deep water 

And you're bailing yourself out with a straw 

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
