We are all floating backwards from the shore Swimming against the current for so long I didn't know it would be so hard Like it or not it's over before long Pull it all through a circle, moving on I can hold my breath longer under water I didn't know, it would take so long Sharpen up every movement til it's strong The design may be as good as it gets We could make our lines blend in with the rest Striking another match, turn it on hot Shaking when it gets colder takes me home I didn't know it would be so hard Drifting from the shore We're not where we used to be Flexing til it's sore Sharpen up the memory
