the great fish (wave after wave)

they're grasping at straws, thicker than thieves, just stumbling around for what they do and don't need, no albatross, no maritime rhyme, just what they can float and what they can fly, so i guess i'll be on my way, wave after wave i'm drowning, day after day i can't breathe, i prayed and i prayed your love found me, now set me free, i'm down in the galley of your beast, cooking up excuses even i don't believe, if i ever wash up break out on your beach, yeah i'll do as i'm told, no you won't have to preach, there's just so much love i can take, wave after wave i'm drowning, day after day i can't breathe, i prayed and i prayed your love found me, now set me free, it's a long, long dark road to grace
