That ain't a parachute
That ain't a rip cord
That ain't a body of water

We're headed for
There's so little time left
So much to be done

Even you are gonna need someone
That ain't a trick of light
Or the morning haze

Coming in from the lake
Getting into your eyes
It's the invisible breath

Of a storm on the rise
That I feel whenever you arrive


Now I may not be quick
Maybe never was
But tell me what the hell it is

That you've become

Baby if you never got sick

I wouldn't get to hold you
Baby if you never got sick
I would never get to hold you


This ain't a righteous love
Even a good one



These ain't the kinds of return

That I was thinking of
I'm unbearable now
You ain't seen nothing yet

You'll se me dead
Before you see me quit
That ain't a jug of wine

That you've been drinking from
Now lay back now baby
Let your fever come

I will bury you in
Just to dig you out
I haven't a use

For being proud




I followed you deep into a barren field
There was someone you were running from

When I needed to sleep
That's when you disappeared
But I did get the impossible done

Now I always knew
There was God inside you
I just never did learn which one
