Deep Water Lyrics by Jewel

Deep Water Lyrics

    You find yourself falling down
    Your hopes in the sky
    But your heart like grape gum on the ground
    And you try to find yourself
    In the abstractions of religion
    And the cruelty of everyone else
    And you wake up to realize
    Your standard of living somehow got stuck on survive

    When you're standing in deep water
    And you're bailing yourself out with a straw
    And when you're drowning in deep water
    And you wake up making love to a wall
    Well it's these little times that help to remind
    It's nothing without love

    You wake up to realize your only friend
    Has never been yourself or anyone who cared in the end
    That's when suddenly everything fades or falls away
    Cause the chains which once held us are only the chains which we've made

    Chorus

    We've compromised our pride
    And sacrificed our health
    We have to demand more
    Not of each other
    But more from ourselves

    Chorus
