Stone Over Water

In my mind there's a fog

San Francisco couldn't handle

So how this year's been a slog

Melting both ends of the candle

And how I wish I could claim

That I don't harbor ill feelings

As my anger's turning to shame

I stare a hole through the ceiling

I'm trying to hold it together

I'm trying to sleep through the night

I've got my windows open to the weather

And I keep telling my friends I'm alright

Yeah, I'm trying to hold it together

Trying to take the first step

Into the arms of wherever, whenever

Every day I awake

Like a stone over water

Skipping across a lake

Before I sink to the bottom

And how I wish I could say

That I'm immune to the mirror

With temples fading to grey

I'm seeing the end drawing nearer

I can scream and shout

Or learn to live without

But I'm trying to hold it together

I'm trying to sleep through the night

I've got my windows open to the weather

And I keep telling my friends I'm alright

Yeah, I'm trying to hold it together

Trying to take the first step

Into the arms of wherever, whenever

Ooh, ooh

Ooh, ooh

Ooh, ooh

Ooh, ooh
