Riptide

I found the meaning in me Please don't go and watch me drown So slowly If we could talk for a moment Just for a moment I wish that we could speak But you are dead in my dreams I don't really know what I should think Sometimes it feels like you died for me Swept up in the flood as our walls caved in Baptism by water, filled with clothes and sin This pain it isn't new I changed my life for you No matter what I do The water Just keeps rising I found the meaning in me Please don't go and watch me drown So slowly If we could talk for a moment Just for a moment I wish that we could speak But you are dead in my dreams I can only ever be the best that I can be If that's not enough then it's not up to me Are we drowning in the ocean? Are we lost at sea? Striving for something I can never reach I am not the villain, babe Though there are times I act insane It takes both hands to call the rain And the water Just keeps rising I found the meaning in me Please don't go and watch me drown So slowly If we could talk for a moment Just for a moment I wish that we could speak But you are dead in my dreams I won't hold you responsible For every feeling that I felt We were a bit irresponsible With the cards that we were dealt Baby, I know that things have to change Or we'll end up alone If you could see me in the light of day I know we could build a home I found the meaning in me Please don't go and watch me drown So slowly If we could talk for a moment Just for a moment I wish that we could speak But you are dead in my dreams
