The Boat I Row

(album: The Slow Rush B-Sides & Remixes - 2022)

Many ways to go
It's hard to self-assure
When everyone's a pro
Saying, "It's so obvious,"
But really they don't know
(They don't know, they don't know shit)
Just like a monster that is only a shadow (A shadow)
From which I'm already running

Easy, I suppose
And even if it takes a hundred-thousand goes
The way's in front of me 'cause that's the one I chose (I chose)
It's always staring at you (Barely a choice)
That's the boat I row (I row)
And though it seems to be

Endless
Problems, relentless
I know I'm oblivious
Bit overzealous
And possibly jealous
I run 'til I'm breathless
Try to suppress it
I couldn't bear it, so onward I go

Many ways to go
