That ain't a parachute
    That ain't a rip cord
    That ain't a body of water
    We're headed for
    There's so little time left
    So much to be done
    Even you are gonna need someone
    That ain't a trick of light
    Or the morning haze
    Coming in from the lake
    Getting into your eyes
    It's the invisible breath
    Of a storm on the rise
    That I feel whenever you arrive
    
    Now I may not be quick
    Maybe never was
    But tell me what the hell it is
    That you've become
    
    Baby if you never got sick
    I wouldn't get to hold you
    Baby if you never got sick
    I would never get to hold you
    
    This ain't a righteous love
    Even a good one
    These ain't the kinds of return
    That I was thinking of
    I'm unbearable now
    You ain't seen nothing yet
    You'll se me dead
    Before you see me quit
    That ain't a jug of wine
    That you've been drinking from
    Now lay back now baby
    Let your fever come
    I will bury you in
    Just to dig you out
    I haven't a use
    For being proud
    
    [chorus]
    
    I followed you deep into a barren field
    There was someone you were running from
    When I needed to sleep
    That's when you disappeared
    But I did get the impossible done
    Now I always knew
    There was God inside you
    I just never did learn which one
    
    [chorus]
