So tired of wading
In the tide so deep and blue
Guiding you in the rhythm
As waves roll over you
I’ll dry off your body
I’ll warm your blood and bones
I’ll do all I can do
But you’ve gotta
Dance in the water
And you know you gotta swim
Or you’ll sink to the bottom
Oh it’s a sad place to be
Hounded to submission
By the demons in your dreams
Hiding in the shadows
Of excess and extreme
Chased on down the highway
By a pack of bad memories
Run all you want to
But you gotta
Dance in the water
And you know you gotta swim
Or you’ll sink to the bottom
Oh that’s a sad place to be
I can’t stop forever
The flood with its heavy load
Rising up and over
You know the dam will explode
We’re all taken by the river
Caught up in the current and the flow
We do all we can do
But we gotta
Dance in the water
And you know you gotta swim
Or you’ll sink to the bottom
Oh that’s a sad place to be
