lyrics

NOT WAVING, BUT DROWNING
(lyrics – Jakszyk)

I could have been your history
I could have been the clues
That untangled all the mysteries
And turned them into news

In the end
I could have been anyone
(Frankly) anyone would do
Looks like you wanted an alibi
Someone to abuse

When there's nothing left.
Then there's nothing left
Nothing left at all

When there's nothing left.
Then there's nothing left
Nothing left at all

Caught between the rise and fall
Here beneath water
From the debris I will crawl
Into the life boat

I could have been the cavalry
The answer to you prayers
Upon the wings of destiny
When no one else would dare

Instead I moved the scenery
When I should have played it cool
Pretend that it was new to me
Instead I played the fool

Caught between the rise and fall
Here beneath water
From the debris I will crawl
Into the life boat

He's not waving
He's a drowning man
Best help out if you can

I'm not waving
I'm a drowning man
Best help me out if you can.

I'm not waving
I'm a drowning man
Best help me out if you can.
