There's so much to be scared of, and not much to make sense of.: swallowed in the sea.

swallowed in the sea.
you cut me down a tree, and brought it back to me
and that's what made me see, where I was going wrong

you put me on a shelf, and kept me for yourself
i can only blame myself, you can only blame me

and I could write a song, a hundred miles long
well, that's where I belong, and you belong to me

and I could write it down, or spread it all around
get lost and then get found, or swallowed in the sea

you put me on a line, and hung me out to dry
and darling that's when I, decided to go to see

you cut me down to size, and opened up my eyes
made me realize, what I could not see

and I could write a book, the one they'll say that shook
the world, and then it took, it took it back from me

and I could write it down, or spread it all around
get lost and then get found, and you'll come back to me
not swallowed in the sea

and I could write a song, a hundred miles long
well, that's where I belong, and you belong with me

the streets you're walking on, a thousand houses long
well, that's where I belong, and you belong with me

oh what good is it to live, with nothing left to give
forget but not forgive, not loving all you see

oh the streets you're walking on, a thousand houses long
well that's where I belong, and you belong with me
not swallowed in the sea

you belong with me
not swallowed in the sea
yeah, you belong with me
not swallowed in the sea
