Headed for a Waterfall

from Boys & Eros by Laura Meyer

/

lyrics

We both can see it coming
But we do nothing to change our course
This ain't some little detour, but a
Killing wind blowing in from the North

Morbid fascination
Is something that I will admit
How long can you tread water
Before the water welcomes you in?

You and I, honey,
We're clinging so tightly to this log
It's all that's holding us together
And we're headed towards a waterfall

Neither of us wants to be
The first to swim away
So we're caught in this stand-off
Afraid of confrontation

Well I can't hold on much longer
I'm beginning to freeze
The rumble's becoming louder
And the tide is picking up speed

You and I, honey,
We're clinging so tightly to this log
It's all that's holding us together
And we're headed towards a waterfall
