Lifeboat
[HEATHER MCNAMARA]
I float in a boat in a raging black ocean
Low in the water and nowhere to go
The tiniest lifeboat with people I know
Cold, clammy, and crowded
The people smell desperate
We'll sink any minute, so someone must go
The tiniest lifeboat with people I know

Everyone's pushing, everyone's fighting
Storms are approaching, there's nowhere to hide
If I say the wrong thing, or I wear the wrong outfit
They'll throw me right over the side

I'm hugging my knees and the captain is pointing
Well, who made her captain?
Still, the weakest must go
The tiniest lifeboat full of people I know
The tiniest lifeboat full of people I know
