Sitting Ducks

[Verse 1] Forget you can feel the wind blow Start to peel back the things that sprout your smile Pretend it's all on the line Now watch colour fade into moonlight Frame by frame, lose your memories as a child Forget the wonderful ride [Pre-Chorus] 'Cause somewhere along The way your feet settle down With a frown on a big playground All you could see but your heads facing down In the sand, look around [Chorus] You've got some cards Play your hand Just sitting ducks in a rut Shame you can't see far past your town When you've got your head in the water But I understand [Verse 2] Cover up these holes in your psyche Act strategic as if you're far from home Keep looking for the road And before you get swallowed up [Pre-Chorus] 'Cause somewhere along the way You'll feel tired and beat Like your knees need a wiping clean All you could see but your mind's incomplete Look around, plant the seed [Chorus] You've got some cards Play your hand Just sitting ducks in a rut Shame you can't see far past your town When you've got your head in the water [Post-Chorus] Oh, I'll be watching you on your own Oh, I'lI be hoping you test your bones See how long you can Carry this heavy load With your head underwater [Outro] You've got some cards Play your hand Just sitting ducks in a rut Shame you can't see far past your town When you've got your head in the water
