lyrics

I’m not useful in any sense of the word.
I’m breathing air that somebody else could use.
I’m just another speck of dirt swept away in the vacuum.
Tried to clean up my act but no matter what I do

You look at me like I’m standing water,
Something you wouldn’t want to put your foot in.
But you don’t have the time or patience to clean it up.
I’m just standing water.

I’ve got no money, no job, no way to pay the rent.
I was so happy for a minute, but oh, was that an accident?
Ran out of fingers counting all the ways I let you down.
The feeling lingers that one more set back might make me drown.

You look at me like I’m standing water,
Something you wouldn’t want to put your foot in.
But you don’t have the time or patience to clean it up.
I’m just standing water.

I’ve got no goals, no marks, no ways to measure any progress.
“Towards what?” I do not know but I always find ways to regress.
I’m kind of worried I won’t amount to anything but fear
That on my gravestone, there’ll be just a name and a couple years.

You look at me like I’m standing water.
Something you wouldn’t want to put your foot in.
But you don’t have the time or patience to clean it up.
I’m just standing water.

“Get a job and pay the rent”

You look at me like I’m standing water,
Something you wouldn’t want to put your foot in.
But you don’t have the time or patience to clean it up.
I’m just standing water.
