oh how bad its been   and how bad it will be   oh how thin things must seem   it's hard for me to say   but one day you'll see me break   and water   will spring from my face   crying how high must we rise   to build a memorial to tall to fall   because it is the ground   oh how bad it's been   and how bad it will be   oh how thin things must seem   i pet every dog i see   i say hello to every cat i meet   yet still i feel incomplete   but i guess that's the way it goes   and there's no reason to know   why non one will save you   when you jump off a boat   oh how bad it's been   and how bad it will be   woe is you and me   then the man sitting next to me   bought me a drink   said excuse but i think   you need this more than me   i said thank you sir   i surely do   and how was your voyage   and how 'bout you   he said   oh how bad it's been   and how bad it will be   woe is you and me.
