Oh, wave crash down on me Until I'm whole again Like days of old I see myself and rise I'm drying out in this weather Feeling of parasites And the time when the night feels better Is when you don't go A taste as bitter as before We could waste all the best of times till we know That lights and shapes, they only fade In the hold that washes all away What a wave What a wave What a wave What a wave The rose's thorn still reaches out to pierce my skin It grows me warm and cloudys up my mind Everybody has an opinion and I don't like most of them 'Cause the life that we live is better living Than living alone The taste, as bitter as before We could waste all the best times till we know The lights and shapes, they only fade In the hold that washes all away What a wave What a wave What a wave What a wave I'm drying out in this weather Feeling of parasites And the time when the night feels better Is when you don't go What a wave What a wave What a wave What a wave What a wave
