What if the ground stayed wet? Would you still run so hard If you wore these feet instead? I don't own a single thing Not the sky Not the ring of trees But I own every breath I take Every ripple that I leave (hey) I go under I come back up (hey) cold rush in my lungs Maybe that's what living is Just one more gulp Then one more jump [Chorus] I'm just a duck in a human world Wrong-sized heart in a webbed-up whirl You walk lines I draw circles of foam Call this mud-caked shoreline home Yeah I'm a joke in your camera frame Little bright blur you won't remember by name You write rules I write wakes on the bay You chase forever I live today [Outro] Late light on the skin of the lake One last bug One last bite One last shake Fluff my feathers Tuck my head Whole loud world And my quiet bed
