Lyrics: Taking On Water

On a sailboat I am
slowly floating nowhere
Lost the memories of
where I am and why

Black ocean churning
a million stars are burning
planetariums were right about the sky

Once upon the day I set off on the journey
Wishing on the wind take me far from home
Now I'm on the waves
And I'm taking on water, hard to see,
I won't always be alone

There was a time when August sun was high and centered on me
but it dipped behind my back and settled down
Used to square up to the land, used to size it in my hand
but it fell behind the line that meets the sky

Once upon the day I pushed off on the journey
Wishing on the wind to take me far from home
Now I'm on the waves
And I'm taking on water, hard to see,
I won't always be alone

Inside this storm whipping in the wind
my sail is torn
In other words, the ends are never not my own

Hard to see I won't always be alone

On a sailboat I am
slowly floating nowhere
Hoping someday I wash up on someone elses shore...
