I was a wave curling up
Man, what were you thinking of?
I don't owe love to anyone
Rise up, the sun will take you on
And no one will know when you're gone;
You wake up
And roll in
You wake up
And roll in
I heard you sighing like the dead;
The new world had gone to your head
Didn't think fast like you should've
Said I'm a dead weight on your life
'cos I'm there and I just wouldn't die
Well guess what?
I feel my heart slowing down
'cos I feel the ocean call and
Today I drown
Hey, did the newcomers take your place?
Oh no
f**ing each other like nothing's changed
Oh no
I couldn't breathe, backwater slums;
No looking back, that time is gone
You feel the world rattling on, rattling on
I wasn't safe, there in your love
This world is cruel, they want your blood
I don't believe we'll ever be done
