Swan Dive (live)

I'm cradling the softest, warmest part of you in my hands

Feels like a little baby bird

Fallen from the nest

I think that your body is something I understandI think that I'm happy

I think that I'm blessed

But I've had a lack of inhibition

I've had a loss of perspectiveI've had a little bit to drink

And it's making me think

That I can jump ship and swim

That the ocean will hold meThat there's got to be more

Than this boat I'm in

They can call me crazy if I fall

All the chance I needIs one-in-a-million

And they can call me brilliant

If I succeed

Gravity is nothing to meI'm moving at the speed of sound

I'm just gonna get my feet wet

Until I drown

I teeter between tiredAnd really, really tired

I'm wiped out and I'm wired

But I guess that's just as well

'Cause I've built my own empireOut of car tires and chicken wire

And now I'm queen of my own compost heap

And I'm getting used to the smell

I've had a lack of informationI've had a little revelation

I'm climbing up on the railing

Trying not to look down

I'm going to do my best swan diveInto shark infested waters

I'm going to pull out my tampon

And start splashing around

'Cause I don't care if they eat me aliveI've got better things to do than survive

I've got the memory of your warm skin in my hands

And I've got a vision of blue sky and warm land

I'm cradling the hardest, heaviest part of me in my handsThe ship is pitching and heaving

Our limbs are bobbing and weaving

I think this is something I understand

I think I need a couple vaccinationsFor my far-away vacation

I'm gonna go ahead and go boldly

'Cause a little bird told me

That jumping is easyAnd falling is fun

Right up until you hit the sidewalk

Shivering and stunned

They can call me crazy if I fallAll the chance I need

Is one-in-a-million

And they cal call me brilliant

If I succeedGravity is nothing to me

I'm moving at the speed of sound

I'm just going to get my feet wet

Until I drown
