Hope or Float
Oh what an unfortunately
Unsurprising turn of events
Oh what a conundrum it presents
Swing with a white-knuckled grip
And cling to the pieces of ship
Or start in the water and end in the water?
The swells, after all
Intercept just the tip
Oh what on earth can I do
I want help you on sea
I want to help you unsee
I want to help
But if I help you
I can't help me
And if I go unhelped
What help can I be?
But what if everything is okay?
What if everything is easy for once?
Maybe everything can be easy for once
Maybe everything can just be okay
Yay
Maybe that isn't a psychopomp
Maybe that's our lifer Hoopoe
Maybe that little Grim Reaper
Will grow up to be a lighthouse keeper
Hope
Hope
Hope
Hope
Hope
Hope
I hit the deck
A cannonball from a diving board
On the crow's nest
Best to leave the stunts to the unprofessionals
Leave the stunts to the unprofessionals
Oh
Oh
Oh
Oh
Oh
The boat's
A hoax
A fantasy of control, a joke
See it for what it is
Now that it's broke
Now we avail ourselves of its
Splinters and rope
To impale ourselves
And hang ourselves
Hope is what kept us from learning to float
Oh
Oh
Oh
Float
Float
Float
Float
Float
But go ahead and offer me
Another free cruise on a shipwreck
How could I refuse?
Why can't I refuse?
While there is life, there is hope
So
Why, for the life of me, can't I just float?
Hope
Hope
Hope
Hope
Hope
As if the water I fear is not the water I bathe in
Unsurprising turn of events
Oh what a conundrum it presents
Swing with a white-knuckled grip
And cling to the pieces of ship
Or start in the water and end in the water?
The swells, after all
Intercept just the tip
Oh what on earth can I do
I want help you on sea
I want to help you unsee
I want to help
But if I help you
I can't help me
And if I go unhelped
What help can I be?
But what if everything is okay?
What if everything is easy for once?
Maybe everything can be easy for once
Maybe everything can just be okay
Yay
Maybe that isn't a psychopomp
Maybe that's our lifer Hoopoe
Maybe that little Grim Reaper
Will grow up to be a lighthouse keeper
Hope
Hope
Hope
Hope
Hope
Hope
I hit the deck
A cannonball from a diving board
On the crow's nest
Best to leave the stunts to the unprofessionals
Leave the stunts to the unprofessionals
Oh
Oh
Oh
Oh
Oh

A hoax
A fantasy of control, a joke
See it for what it is
Now that it's broke
Now we avail ourselves of its

Hope
Hope
Hope
Hope
Hope
As if the water I fear is not the water I bathe in
