we swim sideways 
but have we come to this 
all we ever had 
we lost back there 
but i can't even tell just how far it is 
or how long the drive 
into this world it's all but recompense 
all we have is saving grace 
gone away mandate never the same 
we've made this raft subside 
so we're forced to wade from side to side 
i know your love is deep and wide
