Dive In

I saw a man on the side of the road
with a sign that read 'will work for food'.
Tried to look busy, 'til the light turned green...
I saw a bear on TV and his friends were all drowning
cause their homes were turning to water...
A strange, kinda sad, big old bear
surely would happily eat me
he'd tear me to pieces that bear...
Wake up, sleepy head.
I think the sun's a little brighter today
Smile and watch the icicles melt away and see the water rising...
Summers here to stay, and all those summer games will last forever
Go down to the shore, kick off your shoes, dive in the empty ocean.
Tell me everything will be OK if I just stay on my knees and keep praying
believing in something...
Tell me everything is all taken care of by those qualified to take care of it all.
Wake up sleepy head
I think the sun's a little brighter today
Smile and watch the icicles melt away and see the waters rising...
Summers here to stay, and that sweet summer breeze will blow forever
Go down to the shore, kick off your shoes, dive in the empty ocean.
One day, do you think we'll wake up in a world on it's way to getting better?
and if so can you tell me...
how?
I have been thinking that lately the blood is increasing
the tourniquets not keeping hold in spite of our twisting
though we would like to beleive we are
we are not in control
though we would love to believe
Wake up sleepy head
I think the sun's a little brighter today
Smile and watch the icicles melt away and see the water rising...
Summers here to stay, and those sweet summer girls will dance forever
Go down to the shore, kick off your shoes, dive in the empty ocean.
