Sitting Ducks

[Verse 1]
Forget you can feel the wind blow
Start to peel back the things that sprout your smile
Pretend it's all on the line
Now watch colour fade into moonlight
Frame by frame, lose your memories as a child
Forget the wonderful ride

[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause somewhere along
The way your feet settle down
With a frown on a big playground
All you could see but your heads facing down
In the sand, look around

[Chorus]
You've got some cards
Play your hand
Just sitting ducks in a rut
Shame you can't see far past your town
When you've got your head in the water
But I understand

[Verse 2]
Cover up these holes in your psyche
Act strategic as if you're far from home
Keep looking for the road
And before you get swallowed up

[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause somewhere along the way
You'll feel tired and beat
Like your knees need a wiping clean
All you could see but your mind's incomplete
Look around, plant the seed

[Chorus]
You've got some cards
Play your hand
Just sitting ducks in a rut
Shame you can't see far past your town
When you've got your head in the water

[Post-Chorus]
Oh, I'll be watching you on your own
Oh, I'lI be hoping you test your bones
See how long you can
Carry this heavy load
With your head underwater

[Outro]
You've got some cards
Play your hand
Just sitting ducks in a rut
Shame you can't see far past your town
When you've got your head in the water
