Tide to Swim Behind

I cut my teeth on loving all the things that I could lose I guess I'll just dress these wounds I wanna take you to the edge and see what you would do If I lit fireworks in you Inside my mind, catastrophise, we grow bolder in disguise I cross my wires and hope to die Hands by your sides, you stand outside You stand as much as you would like Guess I'll see you in the next life Slowly, we sway It was good just to be okay Don't close the gate I'll find my own way Oh baby, every morning there's a tide to swim behind Bruises on my knees but I feel right Oh, you know, I won't give up a fight Not while your fingers are tied up in mine I talk a lot of nothing Trying to reach something that is true Walk round the block and read the news One mirrored mind, I fell behind But it's a crime we both defined If this is life, how unkind Slowly, we sway It was good just to be okay Don't close the gate I'll find my own way Oh baby, every morning there's a tide to swim behind Bruises on my knees but I feel right Oh, you know, I won't give up a fight Not while your fingers are tied up in mine Oh baby, every morning there's a tide to swim behind Bruises on my knees but I feel right Oh, you know, I won't give up a fight Well, it's why we never found our light We never found the light You who took all of my time
