high waters

Lyrics

stripped of all emotions, ready to play ball, rolling with the punches, never stealing small, lay it down dirty, play it back clean, i hear what you're saying, don't know what you mean, it's a scheme, i have to say, you're only facing me, to turn away, but i'm here to stay, swallowed by pride, i'm gonna need you, so i'm on your side, turning in the same coin, no one seems to mind, total social failure, always paid in kind, what a find, all burn in grey, when you have nothing, you can't turn away, but i wanna stay, came on the line, high waters later, it fell from my hand, but i'm on the way, still far to go, caught in my head, can't dig it, some will say the father is prey
