If the tide is quickly rising, and the current is too strong
Assist your fellow passengers as you try to swim along
If the nights are sharp and restless, and you've laid awake too long
Help your fellow travelers as they try to swim along
Are you just following orders? Just doing your job
Just pushing the buttons? Just turning the knob
If the tide is quickly rising, and there's no place left to stand
Help your fellow passengers by reaching out your hand
If your world seems fast and empty, and you feel like you might cry
Assist your fellow travelers as you struggle to swim by
Are you just pushing the buttons? Just turning the knob
Just following orders? Just doing your job
If your teeth won't stop their chatter, and the water is too cold
Help your fellow travelers with a hand that they can hold
If the tide is quickly rising, and the current is too strong
Assist your fellow passengers as you try to swim along
Are you just following orders? Just doing your job
Just pushing the buttons? Just turning the knob
