tidal waves - matt duke lyrics

Loading...

so here’s a note i left by the fireplace and ash
from all the notes that i had burned not long ago
it’s great how severing all these ties can make things right
or, at least less wrong than they ever were before

the days i’d sit pensive by the window, and i could taste
the awful flavor of nostalgia mixed with hurt
but now my mouth, my mouth is dry
i choke on logic and my tongue is tied
from reciting inspired bible verses and bullsh-t lies

they say that this world is a wide-open road
and we’re stuck holding the wheel
but in one hand’s a whiskey and the other’s too drunk to steer
so where do we go from here?

so where do we go from here now?

i dance and pray i dance and pray for rain
to wipe this earth out once again!
and extend those forty days and nights indefinitely
and there’ll be tidal waves as all of my problems wash away
you can hear my laughter just before i start to drown

and if everyone here is a child of god
this world is a pitiless wh0r-
and he’s still playing favorites and behind on his child support
so where do we go from here now?

so where do we go from here now?

the noose that we wear doesn’t matter at all
unless we kick out our feet
and perhaps our salvation is to know that we’re incomplete
so here’s the note, the note that counts
explaining why i wanted out
it reads in small print
“i’m much too tired to think anymore” no, no

so where do we go from here now?
so where do we go from here now?
so where do we go from here now?
