Slack Jaw

I got all the parts I wished for
Ive got everything I need
Sometimes Im above water
But mostly Im at sea
Oh, slack jawed me
Cant you see?
Theres so many rhythms and harmonies
And Im walking the dog back
Its not like I got hurt or broken
Or ruined on the way
Its an ache and it shines through me
A swallow in a cage
Oh, slack jawed me
Cant you see?
Theres so many rhythms and harmonies
And Im walking the dog back
Is it a sign? Or just a landmine?
Or a feeling roaming free?
Its overtaken me
Gonna hold it til it dries up
Or pocket it for another day
If its me I cannot give up
Id rather that she stayed
Oh, slack jawed me
Cant you see?
Theres so many rhythms and harmonies
And Im walking the dog back
I got all the parts Ive wished for
I got everything I need
Sometimes Im above water
But mostly Im at sea
Oh, slack jawed me
Cant you see?
Theres so many rhythms and harmonies
And Im walking the dog back
