Rising Tide

There's a boy on a bike
With a spike in his hair
And he's laughing at me
There's a lady in white
Leaning back in her chair
And she's going to sleep

There's a hole in the road
I can never avoid
I fall infinitely
If I ever wake up
I'm gonna be a man
I swear I'll never grow weak

I just forgot that one song that you played
(The melodies don't sound the same)
I almost didn't mind the memories fading slowly

And it takes a lifetime
To find the love of my life
(To find the love, to find the love)
And it takes a minute
For that love to die
(That love to die, that love to die)
Everything gets lost in the rising tide

All my anger inside
Festered without light
Turned into a disease
I just wanted the prize
Wanted to be right
I just wanted to please you

I thought that I could understand your pain
(The melodies don't sound the same)
I know you didn't mind the the memories fading slowly

And it takes a lifetime
To find the love of my life
(To find the love, to find the love)
And it takes a minute
For that love to die
(That love to die, that love to die)
Everything gets lost in the rising tide
Everything gets lost in the rising tide

There's a light in my eye
With my grandmother's guilt
I used to run on the playground
Wishing for a reason to cry
'Cause I felt it in my heart
There's scar tissue inside
Where the rake used to rip
I live under the ice sometimes
When I need nothing at all
Why does everybody watch?

And the pain keeps coming
And then going away
And the nights get longer
But so does day
And the pain keeps coming!
And then going away!
And the nights get longer!
But so does day!
I!

Everything gets lost in the rising tide
(To find the love, to find the love)
Everything gets lost in the rising tide
(That love to die, that love to die)
Everything gets lost
(To find the love, to find the love)
Everything gets lost, lost
(That love to die, that love to die)
(To find the love, to find the love)
(That love to die, that love to die)
Everything gets lost in the rising tide
Everything gets lost in the rising tide
