lyrics

We’ve Been discarded in the water
Lead like lambs to the slaughter
We’ve got to stick together and try
Holding on to each other
It all keeps getting harder
When you’re pulling me down to stay dry
Currents getting stronger
I don’t know how much longer
I can keep my head above the waves
I head in your direction
But I mis-read your affection
And you’re pushing me away

I’m wading for you
The stream is pulling you too
But I’m heading to the ocean
No way I’m going to drown
But the only way you’re heading is straight straight down

The torrent has us now
We’re missing every bough
I struggle hard to go on and reach
You slap away my grasp
Why it’s getting hard too ask
As lovers swell high upon the beach
The waves are moving faster
I can sense disaster
Out of every word that you speak
Travelling side by side
Fighting with the tide
Has made my motions so weak

I’m wading for you
The stream is pulling you too
But I’m heading to the ocean
No way I’m going to drown
But the only way you’re heading is straight straight down

Now I’m treading water
Downward sinking on
You’re looking kinda calm
Like you used me all along

I’m wading for you
The stream is pulling you too
But I’m heading to the ocean
No way I’m going to drown
But the only way you’re heading is straight straight down

I’m pulling on ahead
Through the courses that we tread
Trying hard to shake off your grasp
Rising from your gaze
I’ve lost you in the haze
You finally surrender your clasp
Not going down with your ship
I’ve had enough of your whip
I think it’s time to release your stone
You’re doing pretty fine
Snagged another on your line
Think it’s time for me to go on alone

I’m NOT wading for you
The stream is through with you too
But I’m heading to the ocean
No way I’m going to drown
But the only way you’re heading is straight straight down

The Dice Cubes image

The Dice Cubes Edmonton, Alberta

Rock ‘n’ roll is alive and well! The irresistible beat has been rooted deep in our musical consciousness. This is why The Dice Cubes seem both familiar and shockingly new. The Dice Cubes tap into this vibration while shaping their own distinct beat.
While The Dice Cubes have other styles of music at their fingertips, it is that bedrock pulse laid down in ’57, that resonates through their music! ... more
