Like a spider on the water
– like a sdteamboat on the sea
Like the rocks in whiskey – soda
– I am swimmin on the surface
Like a wave upon the ocean
– like a leaf on a pool
Like the reason on emotion
– I am swimmin on the surface
I'm tryin to get closer to
– I try to break those walls
In vain, I push but can't get through
– I fail to touch your soul
Idlike to see inside the case
– I'd like to find what counts
Instead I hide behind my face
– I'm driftin round and round
On the surface
Like a lightbeam fromm a mirror
– like a hammer from a string
Like an arrow from a hero
– I'm rebounding from the surface
Like a head through a brickwall
– like a sound through a deaf mans ear
Like the truth through a sick soul
– I can't pierce through the surface
I'm tryin to get…
Like a spider on the water
– like a steamboat on the sea
Like the rocks in whiskey – soda
– like ideas I don't agree to
Like a tree trunk on the river
– like a bottle on a creek
Alike doubt that can't touch believers
– I am swimmin on the surface
Right now I must get closer to
– I have to break those walls
Ill push and shove til I get through
– til I can feel your soul
I wanna see inside the case
– I wanna find what counts
Ill cease to hide behind my face
– enough or driftinround
On the surface
