Well I was walking along one fine summer daynWhen suddenly the ground tried to swallow me upnI sank and I sank and I soon lost my breathnUntil I finally let go and gave it a restnnChorus:nI’m looking for a firm placenTo plant my feetnSomething concretenTo rescue menMaybe I’m looking for somethingnI’ve already foundnI’m still searchingnFor solid groundnnWell as soon as I returned to solid groundnPanic struck me again and I sank further downnIt seems I would never come to learnnI already have the ground for which I yearnnn(Chorus)nnSuch a tragedy I never would findnThe fault of my sinking was only minenSo scared that my pushing would never ceasenAnd the earth would continue to swallow menSinking further I am and so shall I remainnDelving deeper and harder, again and again…nn(Chorus)nn
