The Dark Pool

from STATE OF THE ONION by Stephen Bard

lyrics

Don’t go dipping your toes
Even if you want to just see what it’s like
It leads to where nobody knows how to ever get back
Don’t go dipping your toes
Even if you still have your eyes to the sky
It feeds into something that closes you off from your soul

And your soul is all that you have
And all that you have is your soul
I’ll say it again
Beautiful friend
All that you have is your soul

Don’t wade in to your knees
Even if the water’s inviting and warm
It flows to where nobody sees the real thing anymore
Don’t go up to your waist
Even if the surf looks exciting and cool
A lake of potential replaced by a sea of regret
Such regret

‘Cause your soul is all that you get
And all that you get is your soul
I’ll say it again
Now till the end
All that you get is your soul
And your soul is all that you have
And all that you have is your soul
I’ll say it once more
Just like before
All that you have is your soul

So don’t go dipping your toes
Don’t go dipping your toes
Don’t go dipping your toes
Dipping your toes

Even the shallowest part is connected
Before you know it you’re drowning
