Ocean Floor
Contracts and promises
Be careful, or they'll drain
The money from your pocket
All the while, you go insane
Making yourself so vulnerable
Just to carry out a deed
Though, now, you can't back out
Not now you're established as their steed
Trouble doesn't seem to escape you
Held on by strong glue
And despite the fact that you accept
It doesn't seem to think you're fit
For the role
You have to make them sold
On who to trust this with
You can't be bold
Make sure they're told
And they can be trusting
Abandoning all hope
For a well thought out show
Ankle deep in the snow
And freezing to the bone
I expected no more
Go way past the shore
You can be your own gore
On the ocean floor
Pay cheques and feeble loans
Convincing you to stay
Promises of golden bars
But you know, they'll walk away
Are you sure that you believe them
Are you looking for a rush
Not that it would matter
As they would simply make you hush
Trouble doesn't seem to escape you
Held on by strong glue
And despite the fact that you accept
It doesn't seem to think you're fit
For the role
You have to make them sold
On who to trust this with
You can't be bold
Make sure they're told
And they can be trusting
Abandoning all hope
For a well thought out show
Ankle deep in the snow
And freezing to the bone
I expected no more
Go way past the shore
You can be your own gore
On the ocean floor
Be careful, or they'll drain
The money from your pocket
All the while, you go insane
Making yourself so vulnerable
Just to carry out a deed
Though, now, you can't back out
Not now you're established as their steed
Trouble doesn't seem to escape you
Held on by strong glue
And despite the fact that you accept
It doesn't seem to think you're fit
For the role
You have to make them sold
On who to trust this with
You can't be bold
Make sure they're told
And they can be trusting
Abandoning all hope
For a well thought out show
Ankle deep in the snow
And freezing to the bone
I expected no more
Go way past the shore
You can be your own gore
On the ocean floor
Pay cheques and feeble loans
Convincing you to stay
Promises of golden bars
But you know, they'll walk away
Are you sure that you believe them
Are you looking for a rush
Not that it would matter
As they would simply make you hush
Trouble doesn't seem to escape you
Held on by strong glue
And despite the fact that you accept
It doesn't seem to think you're fit
For the role
You have to make them sold
On who to trust this with
You can't be bold
Make sure they're told
And they can be trusting
Abandoning all hope
For a well thought out show
Ankle deep in the snow
And freezing to the bone
I expected no more
Go way past the shore
You can be your own gore
On the ocean floor
