Feels like I can't do right
By anyone these days
I looked into the water
And tried to see my face again
A fish blew and I turned my head
And followed a trail
As a lure pulled against a current
And a hook poised in place
We may get one today boy
We may find ourselves saying grace
For the Lord loves a blessing
And I sure would like a taste
To be grateful just to be grateful
In these hard times can leave you thin
And I can't but feel that we're
Lost and losing everything
As your hook flashed a smile
We danced between the currents
You danced like a ballerina
In the sunlight
I looked and was blinded
And bit down and binded
To you because
I had no choice
Because I had no choice
Because I had no choice
I got skinny I got used to the pain
I swam within the finish
Within dark circles I swam
Waiting to be rescued
Until no rescue arrived
I knew I had it coming
And I wanted to die
Breathless struggling
The only way I can feel
Since I danced with you that morning
And I kissed your steel
You said feather me
And set me to the task of this death
Let me hold you one more minute
One last breath
As your hook flashed a smile
We danced between the currents
You danced like a ballerina
In the sunlight
I looked and was blinded
And bit down and binded
To you because
I had no choice
Because I had no choice
Because I had no choice
