Canoe
And yeah, sometimes I find myself here
on this endless lake,
and my canoe is sinking
Getting creative, getting by
In the holes of the boat
I am clumping the reeds,
clutching at straws,
and wondering what I do this for
Half afloat, I ripple -
see these ****** echoes?
I cannot move without a trace
And still, the boat is sinking -
I think about how
I’ve never been good at swimming
Treading till I ache
Aching for the shore -
where could I find it?
Half afloat and rippling, as I empty
and I’m sinking
Yeah, I find myself here sometimes
