Don't Drink the Water - Don't Drink The Water

Don't drink the water from here Come out, come out, no use in hiding Come now, come now, can you not see? There's no place here, what were you expecting? No room for both, just room for me So you will lay your arms down Yes, I will call this home Away, away, you have been banished Your land is gone and given to me And here I will spread my wings Yes, I will call this home What's this you say? You feel the right to remain Then stay, and I will bury you What's that you say? Your father's spirit still lives in this place Well, I will silence you Here's the hitch, your horse is leaving Don't miss your boat, it's leaving now And as you go I will spread my wings Yes, I will call this home Well, I have no time to justify to you Fool, you're blind, move aside for me All I can say to you, my new neighbor Is you must move on, or I will bury you Now, as I rest my feet by this fire Those hands once warmed here Well, I have retired them I can breathe my own air And I can sleep more soundly Upon these poor souls I'll build heaven and call it home 'Cause you're all dead now And I live with my justice And I live with my greedy need Or I live with no mercy And I live with my frenzied feeding I live with my hatred And I live with my jealousy Or I live with the notion That I don't need anyone but me Don't drink the water Don't drink the water There's blood in the water Don't drink the water I'm bleeding Don't drink the water Don't drink the water There's blood in the water Don't drink the water There's blood in the water Bleeding

Drink the water drink it down This time I know, I'm bound To spit it back up I didn't want this Salty substitute Just not going to do I need some air If I'm going to live through This experience Reminds me of a clock That just won't tick I want to wake up From this concussion But my dream is just not done I'm late again It's just one of those Bad days look outside and Be careful what you ride You just might find That you're out of time To swim ashore If I drift long enough I'll be home He's got delusions between his ears Man, it takes up too much space And all that tension between his gears Man, he'll never ever leave this place He's got stones instead of bones And everybody knows All that that can make you real real slow And if Heaven was below He'd know just where to go Dive in the ocean and he'd sink like a stone And he'd say It's time to swim ashore If I drift long enough I'll be home Hold on if you can You're gonna sink faster Than you can imagine, so hold Hold on if you can You're gonna sink faster Than you can imagine, so hold It's just time to swim over shore If I drift long enough I'll be home
