high water line - rand messmer lyrics
[rand messmer] [high water line]
what you’ve got to your name
waxes and wanes till you find that you’re sinking below
so you position yourself head-on with the waves
just to help you stay afloat
no the tides here ain’t lifting all boats
he said they reap what i sow
i’ve nothing to show
for working my hands to the bone
this is all that i’ve earned and i’ve clear-cut and burned
all of the land that i own
and it’d not be the means that i’d choose
if i had but a choice left at all
but i need to keep moving
and praying the rain starts to fall
’cause what you’ve got to your name
waxes and wanes till you find that you’re sinking below
so you position yourself head-on with the waves
just to help you stay afloat
no the tides here ain’t lifting all boats
he said night times i pray
there might come a day
when i’d get to see a fair share
but the sun beating down on a smallholder’s town
gets hotter and hotter each year
you’d have thought that a man of my age
of the mind to surrender his time
might have carved out a way
to stay up past the high water line
what you’ve got to your name
waxes and wanes till you find that you’re sinking below
so you position yourself head-on with the waves
just to help you stay afloat
no the tides here ain’t lifting all boats
no the tides here ain’t lifting all boats
