i used to think you're childish
when you talked about your plans
but i was the kid
just playing with words like one
in the clan of the clowns
i stood by the water tower
and i thought i saw a crack on its side
and i thought of you
i'm pretty sure they'll catch me
there are days i hope they would
tired of running
i'm a man not an antilope
and i let the time run for me
i stood by the water tower
and thought i saw a crack on it side
and i thought of
the tons of water
waiting up there
to hammer me down
oh the tons of water up there
waiting for their turn
to break my spine
