Sink or Swim

For a couple of friends who may, as I did, find the lyrics to this song altogether too apropos for the season in which we ourselves...

Will you hold my hand
Do I have to stand in this world all alone
Where it’s icy cold
And all the people chime in,
“You’ve got to sink or swim”

Where there’s rain, there’s drought
So I’ll confess my doubts
Where there’s threshing of the fields
Something’s bound to yield
And all the people cry out
They feel they’re about to drown
On the ocean floor
But I know there’s more

I know You understand what it’s like to me man
Sometimes I forget You’re near
Sometimes I forget You hear
The way the raindrops fall
The sound of the wind as it calls
And every breath I breathe
And song I don’t sing

--"Sink or Swim," by Waterdeep
