Life In These Little Boats - Deas Vail

We’re swirling in and out lanes

With our coinciding pains

Would you calm down please?

And though you say its not the case

We’re full of irony and space

And you know it

But oh youve known it all along

You say this constant change in plans

Is tossed about in plastic hands

Dont you feel that?

And though we’re out here on our own

We’re a thousand miles from home

We could make it, and we could take this in our hands

We could fall between these lines if you would work with me

I could pull you from this cellar, we could break these chains together

And you’ll become just what you were always meant to be

From this darkness we’re escaping

As we’re climbing from the belly of the sea

And all these battle lines were placed

Though their meaning’s been erased

Into silence

And so we stayed and stood our ground

Though they were nowhere to be found

We were so afraid

But we just stood on anyway

And we could fall between these lines if you would work with me

I could pull you from this cellar, we could break these chains together

And you’ll become just what you were always meant to be

From this darkness we’re escaping

As we’re climbing from the belly of the sea

Dont you wait

You know that you were made for this

Dont you wait

You know that you were made for this

We could fall between these lines if you would work with me

I could pull you from this cellar, we could break these chains together

And you’ll become just what you were always meant to be

From this darkness we’re escaping

As we’re climbing from the belly of the sea
