When I'm cold and alone all I want is my freedom And a sudden gust of gravity I stop wailing and kicking Just to let this water cover me, cover me
Only if I rest my arms, rest my mind You'll overcome me and swell up around me With my fighting so vain, with my vanity so fought I'm rolling over
'Cause in just the same way That the stream becomes swollen Swollen with cold up over the ground When my heart draws close to the close of autumn Your love, your love abounds
All the time I'm thinking Wondering how would it be To breathe in deep I guess I need to be careful when I ask for a drink (Just might get what I ask for)
And I know just what You'd say to me That's why I don't ask You What would I ask You? I'm like a bullheaded boy these days Crying my toy's gone. . . You're shiny and new
Guess I'll drop my anger here Before I float away And the chains around me An awful lot of talking I don't leave You much to say You didn't ever leave me
And my greatest fear Was You'd leave me here A long time back my feet Could touch the bottom
