lyrics

A Storm in a Teacup

Hold on to what you can find
This time we’re in for a real ride
You can batten down the hatches
Throw the ballast off the sides
But most of us are going for a dive

In a storm in a teacup
You’d think you could touch the sides
Storm in a teacup
You might make it out alive
In a storm in a teacup
Forget about the size
You won’t make it out dry

I’m not afraid I’ll drown
I’m not afraid I’ll drown
I’m scared of what they’ll think of me when I’m not around
But I’m not afraid I’ll drown

In a storm in a teacup
You’d think you could touch the sides
Storm in a teacup
You might make it out alive
In a storm in a teacup
Forget about the size
You won’t make it out dry

I’m not afraid I’ll choke
I’m not afraid I’ll choke
I’m scared of being chased around by memories and ghosts
But I’m not afraid I’ll choke

In a storm in a teacup
You’d think you could touch the sides
Storm in a teacup
You might make it out alive
In a storm in a teacup
Forget about the size
You won’t make it out dry
