Letting the whole world down
How will I be sure this time around
What if the sun came round?
What if I drowned? What if I drowned?
And what were you safe from?
Did you roll or beat the drum?
I found a new island
What do we do if they don’t run?
And I been alone again
Don’t try to lose, don’t try to win
We coming longer than done
Up here and around, I can’t swim
And what were you saved from?
Did you roll and shoot the gun?
What were you saved from?
Should I run or should I turn?
