Waiting in a sinking room
What's a kid to do
Mom is reaching for a smile
While dad is breaking windows just to let more water through
But she can't pick up all the pieces
Waiting in a sinking room
She whispers
Waiting in a sinking room
What's a kid to do
Mom is reaching for an answer
While dad is drowning the last part of the man she once knew
He just won't fess up all the reasons
Waiting in a sinking room
She whispers
Waiting in a sinking room
What's a girl to do
While he's throwing out an anchor
With it wrapped around her ankles
Everything she sees is blue
But she can't swim up to the surface
Waiting in a sinking room
She whispers
I want to be more
I want to be more
I want to be more than this
