Riptides

Lyrics for Riptides

These days I say goodbye without opening my mouth [00:24.56]I just stare into the distance til you figure it out [00:32.28]'Cause I feel as invested as a border guard [00:40.38]Who's seen too many people leaving to take it too hard [00:45.01] [00:47.43]I'm too tired to talk, I'm too tired to end the war [00:55.33]And I can't seem to hold it together anymore [01:00.50] [01:02.48]And my old haunts, each one's a trigger and I'm holding the gun [01:10.80]Like a perp frozen in your headlights who forgot to run [01:18.12]And I'm overcome by the voices multiplying in the crowd [01:26.06]That's been swelling in between my ears and growing frighteningly loud [01:30.86] [01:33.51]I'm too tired to talk, I'm too tired to end the war [01:41.41]And I can't seem to hold it together anymore [01:48.95]I'm too tired to start, I can't bring you up to speed [01:56.49]There's too many riptides in this ocean to proceed [02:01.74] [02:05.46]And though I'm feeling fine [02:09.20]Roughly half the time [02:13.06]There's a fatal flaw [02:16.88]In my heart's design [02:21.89] [02:35.01]I'm too tired to talk, I'm too tired to end the war [02:42.88]And I can't seem to hold it together anymore [02:50.32]I'm too tired to start, I can't bring you up to speed [02:58.04]There's too many riptides in this ocean to proceed [03:03.44] [03:05.76]There's too many riptides in this ocean to proceed [03:11.59]
