lyrics

Rock Hopping

The only talent I was born with
was rock hopping over water
the unexpected sudden grace and pride
of finally keeping up with my brother

and the joyful ease
of forward motion and the soft relief
of something finally coming naturally

learning to trust my luck

to keep me finding the next step
the right move in the nick of time
and never winding up wet
you just have to keep moving

and of course the river is time
and the rocks are the island chain of inspirations
I seek to keep my mind clear
of stagnant preoccupations

trapped on a wobbling rock
with no momentum to get to the next
the only option is to turn back
but you're probably gonna get wet

and of course the water is fear
and forward motion is the faith in luck
I try to keep my mind clear
weight shifted towards the next rock

in the air above the water
a child floats grinning
