Propeller (1994)

Every night you're in no-man's land
It's alright just do the best you can
Time fights us all
It's so hard to hit the bottom
When you used to see the top
But it's easy treading water
When you can't survive the drop
And it's alright - treading water
It's alright - treading water
Everyday it's the same old line
That's OK you're doin' fine
All the problems keep on comin'
When you thought that they would stop
You don't like the life you're livin'
But it's everything you've got
And it's alright - treading water
Yeah, it's alright - treading water
It's so hard to hit the bottom
When you used to see the top
But it's easy treading water
When you can't survive the drop
And it's alright - treading water
It's alright - treading water
Any day now your ship is comin' in
The clouds roll out, the sun shines in
You believe it's gonna happen
So you've gone and made some plans
But you can't be sure it's comin'
'Til you hold it in your hands
But it's alright - reading water
Yeah, it's alright - treading water
