deckhand breakdown blues

try to keep on top
but have to let go
world moves too slow
distant voices scream 'stop'
can't make it now
can't make it here

ask them 'how'?
but they never show
too much fear
just go for a beer
can't make it now
can't make it here

dropping low
falling lower
too many blows
that make you cower
can't make it now
can't make it here
