Yours to lose I drink from the same well as you Yes, and I drink from the same well as you Culture bending, message sending Shouts of river to the sea Displaying wilful ignorance As to shifting tides of history They drink from the same well as you Yes, and they drink from the same well as you We lovers lost in doomed matrimony Cast adrift on an angry sea Of angry words, vicious, vindictive Low-hanging fruit on Eve's poisoned tree I drink from the same well as you You drink from the same well as me Yes, I drink from the same well as you Yes, and you drink from the same well as me Chew it over, chew the cud Join hand in hand before the flood Tell me which way you choose Do I care? Yours to lose
