lyrics

WAVES

Barely made it in your head
I second-guess all I've ever said
I contemplate your fragile neck
The narrow trail to the treasures in your chest

WERE IT NOT FOR THE RUMBLE OF THE WAVES
I’D BE SWALLOWED BY THE SILENCE
THE VIVID AIR KEEPS THE BALANCE IN MY BRAIN
IT MAKES UP FOR THE DISTANCE

I lost my roots along your spine
The city noise is buried far behind
The fading sun remains in view
It comforts me until I make it through

WERE IT NOT FOR THE RUMBLE OF THE WAVES
I’D BE SWALLOWED BY THE SILENCE
THE VIVID AIR KEEPS THE BALANCE IN MY BRAIN
IT MAKES UP FOR THE DISTANCE

‘CAUSE IN YOUR HEART LIES THE REMEDY
FOR THE SORENESS OF MY DAYS

It's like trying to swim with just one hand
And both my feet buried in the sand
A magnetic pull nobody understands
It's you making sure the adventure never ends

Feeling the undertow
A reason to believe
Safe in the afterglow
I never wanna leave

WERE IT NOT FOR THE RUMBLE OF THE WAVES
I’D BE SWALLOWED BY THE SILENCE
THE VIVID AIR KEEPS THE BALANCE IN MY BRAIN
IT MAKES UP FOR THE DISTANCE

‘CAUSE IN YOUR HEART LIES THE REMEDY
FOR THE SORENESS OF MY DAYS

Barely caught the last train home
