Standing on the shore watching our ship go down Sinking in the sand and I can't turn around Future's looking black and it's a sight to see Just a thousand grey waves crashing over me Just a thousand grey waves breaking over me Now it's happening to me, why can't I ever see? Am I gonna let you leave without a sound? Watching 'til you're out of sight Dreaming I did something right standing on my own again Water in my lungs and it's a pain to breathe Salt is in my eyes and it's a pain to see
I can't stand the pressure though you think I can Just don't wanna see it going down the pan Just don't wanna see it going down the pan Now it's happening to me, why can't I ever see? Am I gonna let you leave without a sound? Pushing you to your wit's end Guess I'm gonna lose a friend standing on my own again Now it's happening to me, why can't I ever see? Am I gonna let you leave without a sound? Watching 'til you're out of sight Dreaming I did something right standing on my own again
