Treading Water

[Verse 1]

Movies like zoos

Try another me and I will try another you

Or put my arms around you, like I think you want me to

But tell me what you're thinking

I so often misconstrue

[Chorus]

Treading water

Treading white wine

Seeing borders

Seeing straight lines

I get these feelings that I don't have much time

Always rushing, always late

Always rushing, always late

Always late

[Verse 2]

Movies like zoos

I talk to missionaries when they're standing at my door

They tell me what I should be reading

I still can't see what for

We both stand there politely, trying to change each other's core

[Bridge]

When other angels float by

They seem likely to fall from the sky

What I want is difficult

I must try

I see traces when you walk

And other voices when you talk

When you talk

When other angels float by

They seem likely to fall from the sky

What I want is difficult

I must try

I see traces when you walk

[Chorus]

Treading water

Treading white wine

Seeing borders

Seeing straight lines

I get these feelings that I don't have much time

Always rushing, always late

Always rushing, always late

Always late

Always late

I'm always rushing

Always late

Always late

Always late

Always late

I'm always rushing

I'm always rushing

Always late
