Dave Barnes

High Water

It ain't love if it's gonna run out

It ain't peace that you're fighting about

You build a life on half truths

The other half is gonna get you

Don't matter what you do

We keep forgetting these lessons that life taught us

We're living on time that's turning blind eyes upon us

We're getting up to our neck, little by little

Every lie is like a rising tide, we're in high water

Ain't much good is gonna ever get done

When we're pointing our fingers at everyone

Don't you see we can't help it

We're going and broke and then selfish

Don't matter what you do

We keep forgetting these lessons that life taught us

We're living on time that's turning blind eyes upon us

We're getting up to our neck, little by little

Every lie is like a rising tide, we're in high water

What's gonna keep us from drowning

In the high water

Who's gonna save our soul

What's gonna keep us from drowning

Drowning in the the high water

Someone save our soul

We keep forgetting these lessons that life taught us

We're living on time that's turning blind eyes upon us

We're getting up to our neck, little by little

Every lie is like a rising tide, we're in high water

We're in high water
