Drink the water drink it down   This time I know, I'm bound   To spit it back up   I didn't want this   Salty substitute, just not going to do   I need some air, if I'm going to live through   This experience reminds me of a clock   That just won't tick      I want to wake up   From this concussion   But my dream is just not done   I'm late again   It's just one of those   Bad days look outside and   Be careful what you ride   You just might find   That you're out of time      To swim ashore   If I drift long enough   I'll be home      He's got delusions between his ears   Man, it takes up too much space   And all that tension between his gears   Man, he'll never ever leave this place   He's got stones instead of bones   And everybody knows   All that, that can make you real real slow   And if Heaven was below, he'd know just where to go   Dive in the ocean and he'd sink like a stone   And he'd say      It's time to swim ashore   If I drift long enough   I'll be home      Hold on if you can   You're gonna sink faster   Than you can imagine, so hold   Hold on if you can   You're gonna sink faster   Than you can imagine, so hold      It's just time to swim over shore   If I drift long enough   I'll be home
