Matisyahu Message In A Bottle
Just a castaway An island lost at sea Another lonely day With no one here but me More loneliness Than any man could bear Rescue me before I fall into despair
I'll send my SOS to the world Send my SOS to the world I hope that someone gets my I hope that someone gets my I hope that someone gets my Message in a bottle
A year has passed since I wrote my note I should have known straight from the start Only hope can keep me together Love can mend your life But love can break your heart
I'll send my SOS to the world Send my SOS to the world I hope that someone gets my I hope that someone gets my I hope that someone gets my Message in a bottle
TV set, jetstream, haul off until tomorrow Internet, flat screen, what's the message in your bottle? She'll be coming around the mountain when she comes full throttle Battle axe and chop em down, that's the call of the wild There's no message in your bottle, emptiness, it's just hollow Think the way to wake up is through sex, that's just shallow Tossing seed into the wind producing loss and sorrow Draculas on MTV sucking the blood from the marrow Hard-hearted like stone, want to be known like Pharaoh Said let my people go, that's the call of the wild Children drowning in the river Swimming, bubbling top Hit the world full speed Dropping for hard to swallow If its roots are cut off, how we gon' feed this flower Might look pretty temporary but rotten within the hour Disconnected from its source with no footsteps to follow Chasing death disguised as life, world's a bridge that's narrow
Woke up this morning Won't believe what I saw A hundred billion bottles Washed up on the shore Seems I'm not alone at being alone A hundred billion castaways Searching for their home
I'll send my SOS to the world Send my SOS to the world I hope that someone gets my I hope that someone gets my I hope that someone gets my Message in a bottle
