higher ground


time climbs a steep ladder
makes you sadder than you've ever been
my mind's just percolating 
meanwhile I'm waiting for love again

I've always stood for reason
but now I see some
fierce waves ahead
I'm bolting down the hatches
fighting for land ahead

          I'm not waving here
          I'm drowning
          take me to higher ground

time drives a hard bargain
a rose garden of sharpened thorns
and when you've broken through
it's up to you whose shoes are worn

          I'm not waving here
          I'm drowning
          take me to higher ground
