great big beaches

I'll take you to the back emergency
Let out all the secrets you can't keep
It's like I don't know what it means to be
One inside this shell of me

They say it comes on slow, but that's alright
'Cause those teeth gotta grow before they learn how to bite
And the movies they show, don't show wrong from right
And we can argue that all night
'Cause I will, when they won't, just to let 'em know I float
In your wave
And I'll get sucked up for days, don't know where I could end up

'Cause I couldn't see where I was supposed to be
It's like the water reached my neck, and foresaw the rest terribly
I couldn't see where I was supposed to be
It's like the water reached my neck, and I foresaw the rest terribly

I am a grain of sand forever trapped inside your current
Aimless and meaningless like those tiny things I dissect
I learned to talk to the dead and said
"Something went wrong down here"

You'll get spit out, and it kills, but you'll learn there's nothing to fear
And you've got great big beaches from an even bigger ocean
And I'll complete them 'til I learn how to swim
Great, big beaches from an even bigger ocean
And I'll complete them 'til I learn how to swim
