lyrics

I have no horses which never tire.
I've seen no chariots of fire.
I have no giant's shoulders upon which to stand.
I have no golden shores on which to land.

I have no ship to take me to the moon.
Cupid's bow don't always fire true.
My shoddy armour's pierced almost every day
By things that I've done and stupid things I've said.

I have no strength, to give me flight.
I have no will to pick a fight.
So I will stand, watch water rise around my feet.
Until a whole ocean covers me.

And it's fighting I don't want to see
But it's here and it's raging in me.

While I floated at sea,
The flotsam and the jetsam were good company.

While I swam for dear life,
The sharks bit my ankles and the seagulls my eyes.
