I pour cold water in my tea, And I drive down soflty to the sea. And I wait and pray and I will leave, Somewhere better when the waves wash shore over me. I have always found it hard to teach, And the water found it hard to see. But its well recorded and agreed, That the male seahorse carries his children. I have had this baby in my womb, False contractions for a long time now. And I fear unless it happens soon, That my children will have no mother, No mother, so swim down sofly with the tide. And I go on sofly fainting why, And I beg we thought to be alive. And I beg with him to be a bride, For the end of the city or the sun, To have that genius at my side. To Take me out my lips, Make me tread water Get out of breath and Ward off my death By keeping those breaths of All of thoses waves and All of those water Take me out of my depth Make me tread water Get out of breath And ward off my death By keeping the breaths of All of those waves And all of that water Take me out of my death Make me tread water Get out of breath And ward off my death By keeping the breaths of All of those waves And all of that water Take me out of my depth Make me tread water Get out of breath And ward off my death By keeping the breaths of All of those waves And all of that water Take me out of my depth Make me tread water Get out of breath And ward off my death By keeping the breaths of All of those waves And all of that water Take me out of my depth Make me tread water Get out of breath And ward off my death By keeping the breaths of All of those waves And all of that water

Oh the night time's the hardest time And it knows all my lies But it feels like the right time To open my eyes You know the saying It comes and it goes You know the saying It comes and it goes Oh the night time mystifies So I'll wait for sunrise 'Cause it feels like we're out of time And it's hard as we try You know the saying It comes and it goes You know the saying It comes and it goes You know the saying You know the saying You know the saying It comes and it goes It comes and it goes You know the saying You know the saying It comes and it goes

Used to have a life I had everything Used to have a life I had everything Comes and goes Comes and goes I didn't know it I was far from home Used to have a life I had everything Comes and goes Comes and goes Comes and goes Comes and goes Before you know it You're so far from home Before you know it, baby You're so far from home Before you know it, baby So far from home Comes and goes Comes and goes Comes and goes Comes and goes Comes and goes It comes and goes

High or low, where'd you go Are you stuck in the middle? A spectral invisible ghost I'm here juxtaposed Like images of angels in the snow Our courage melts away, it comes then goes Where you been? Can I find A glimpse of my friend Don't know where or when one of us left The other behind Divisions came and troubles multiplied Incisions made by scalpel blades of time Comes then goes Comes then goes Can I say, how ya been? I can guess and conjecture My altered perceptions unclear Please interfere Sadness comes with it a sea of tears Would some love be best had it not appeared? Is this you? Here I stand Intense recollections of pain, self-neglecting again Like you, I keep it in Thought you found a game where you could win Yeah, it's all vivisection in the end Comes then goes Comes then goes Comes then goes High or low, try again She fell off the altar A vision you caught of her but then A woodcut in red I wish it was not you that she had led Selfish navigation with no end Where'd you sleep? Can I find A deeper connection In the face of rejection I'm trying I'm trying Evidence in the echoes of your mind Leads me to believe we missed the signs Can I try, one last time? Could all use a saviour From human behavior sometimes And the kids are alright The Queen of Collections took your time Sadness comes 'cause some of it was mine Comes then goes Comes then goes Comes then goes Comes then goes

In this proud land we grew up strong We were wanted all along I was taught to fight, taught to win I never thought I could fail No fight left or so it seems I am a man whose dreams have all deserted I've changed my face, I've changed my name But no one wants you when you lose Don't give up 'Cause you have friends Don't give up You're not beaten yet Don't give up I know you can make it good Though I saw it all around Never thought I could be affected Thought that we'd be the last to go It is so strange the way things turn Drove the night toward my home The place that I was born, on the lakeside As daylight broke, I saw the earth The trees had burned down to the ground Don't give up You still have us Don't give up We don't need much of anything Don't give up 'Cause somewhere there's a place Where we belong Rest your head You worry too much It's gonna be alright When times get rough You can fall back on us Don't give up Please don't give up I've gotta walk out of here I can't take anymore I'm gonna stand on that bridge Keep my eyes down below Oh, whatever may come And whatever may go That river's flowing Oh, that river's flowing Moved on to another town Tried hard to settle down For every job, so many men So many men no-one needs Don't give up You have friends And don't give up I'm proud of who you are Don't give up And I believe there's a place Where we belong
