I Wish I Could Do The Backstroke

Out again humming that same monotony knowing yet again that 
familiar feeling that torn chance dream held together by 
just that little bit by that tiny spec of something 
promised can you see it yeah well maybe you'll reach it one 
day along with that calm pool because in this pool it's 
sink or swim but you're caught doing the dead man's float i 
wish i could give you something different but i'm lying in 
the water face down beside you
