Umphrey's McGee > Songs > Wellwishers > Lyrics


    If you had to make it matter
    But you just can't find the words
    When you're waiting for an answer
    That you've already heard
    Then you're drowning in the moment
    Cause you've never learned to swim
    As the distance grows between the shores
    You know how this could end

    Are you thankful for your wellwishers
    Who put you in your way
    Or bitter cause your currency
    Is lost in the exchange
    So forget about your handfuls
    When it's worthless your supply
    As the sun begins to grow red
    You're running low on time

    I have to wonder are you stuck under
    Clouds or possibilities
    Why can't you turn against those urges?
    They'll desert you guaranteed.
    If nothing's certain than that's worse
    Than this confusion as it intrudes on you and me

    If you fit into your patterns
    It should come as no surprise
    As it safely starts to shatter
    You learn to be polite

    So be hopeful as a candle
    Is worried for its flame
    The more that you can handle here
    The less you'd feel the same.

    I have to wonder are you stuck under
    Clouds or possibilities
    Why can't you turn against those urges?
    They'll desert you guaranteed.
    If nothing's certain than that's worse
    Than this confusion as it intrudes on you and me
