lyrics

UNEARTHED AND UNDERFED


Break water
Break the surface
For one gulp of air
Before I was pulled back under
(By my own arm, incidentally)
I don't know what I need
Or what's best for me
So far i've been lucky

But now,
What am I doing back here?
Didn't I get enough the first time around?
This is more than me, nostalgic
This is what was buried,
Unearthed

I guess that I'm worried
(Big surprise, I know)
That my efforts to connect have been misled
But what to expect
What with me circumspect,
Behind bars and underfed
