So We Say

We formed our own circle
With pens and knives and a compass
Tried to tie all that's broken
And sail away on what remains

We've two of every colour
The reds, the blues and the yellows
Paint ourselves another picture
Take a bath in what remains

What lies beneath the surface?
Scratch the skin, what do you see?
Do we bleed like all the others?
Can you live with what remains?

We don't live our life in questions
But there?s plenty to be asked
Don't come late to our party
Or we'll think you can?t be arsed

Dip your toe into the water
Is it warm enough for you?
We won't hold you to ransom
But if you want to remain

There's room here for everyone
If we all budge up a bit
Don't be shy, come ride the waves
And writhe among the remains

The earth is small, yet we are big
I don't know what makes it so
But we're all in this together
And that fact remains the same

Take my hand and walk with me
And I will show you a new world
Eveything moves around an orbit
New rules in a different game

Nothing can stand in our way
Nothing can hold us, so we say
Every turn reveals a new day
Nothing can stop us, so we say

Down, down goes the plunger
As I pour another drink
Pump, pump out the water
This good thing must never sink

Nothing can stand in our way
Nothing can hold us, so we say
Every turn reveals a new day
Nothing can stop us, so we say
