NADA SURF LYRICS - Treading Water

"Treading Water"



Movies like zoos

Try another me and i will try another you

Or put my arms around you

Like i think you want me to

But tell me what you're thinking

I so often misconstrue

Treading water treading white wine

Seeing borders seeing straight lines

I get these feelings that i don't

Have much time

Always rushing always late

Movies like zoos

I talk to missionaries when they're

Standing at my door

They tell me what i should be reading

I still can't see what for

We both stand there politely trying

To change each other's core

When other angels float by

They seem likely to fall from the sky

What i want is difficult i must try
