Standing on the Water

[Verse 1]
Why do we surround ourselves with houses and big cars
Then try to make out we’ve got it made?
When nothing belongs to us, we’re only passing through
We’re all part of a masquerade

[Chorus]
We are standing on the water, talking to the wall
Making so much matter of what’s of matter no at all
We must hold on to ourselves because it’s so easy to fall
When standing on the water and talking to the wall

[Verse 2]
If we look around we can see trouble everywhere
It’s living on the air that wе breathe
And although we’d likе to hide out in the desert for a while
There’s somethings that you just can’t leave

[Chorus]
When you’re standing on the water, talking to the wall
Making so much matter of what’s of matter no at all
We must hold on to ourselves because it’s so easy to fall
When standing on the water and talking to the wall

[Chorus]
We are standing on the water, talking to the wall
Making so much matter of what’s of matter no at all
We must hold on to ourselves because it’s so easy to fall
When you’re standing on the water, talking to the wall

[Verse 3]
So many pictures looking at us through a smile
Making us want things we don’t need
So many people telling us what to do
Of who we are and where we should be

[Chorus]
When they’re standing on the water, talking to the wall
Making so much matter of what’s of matter no at all
We must hold on to ourselves because it’s so easy to fall
When standing on the water and talking to the wall
