Out on the river
Everything’s a mess
The first mate is tired
And the captains overstressed 
She’s unimpressed
With the boats

Down along the valley
They’re trying to build a wall
But the bluster in their veins
Makes it impossible
Won’t work at all 
This much we know

And if you took all the scientific progress
And measured it against the unknown
It wouldn’t fill a single cup 
On God’s nightstand, oh no

Up on the mountain 
They’re licking lots of frogs
Dream the secret universe
But wake and it’s all lost
That’s just the cost
Of doing what you have to do

Here in this apartment
I’m trying not to faint
Balancing between
What I am and what I ain’t
The lines are straight
It’s time that’s all askew
