High Tide Lyrics by ACADEMY

The Beat Generation

2015

[Chorus: Evan Walsh]
I twist a 40 while I'm staring at a pink sky
I pass it over you ain't got a chance to think why
And they say life is short but I've been alive
So we run and jump at high tide

[Verse 1: Evan Walsh]
Rooftop view like it's top of the Pru
City staring up cuz I'm falling for you
Ima jump, float to the Cape
Rope a dope any boat in the way
I'm swimming, round n round and I'm looking for new beginnings
Don't rush with the brush paint a picture be in it let's finish
Don't stay tethered to bitter, something sweeter's a little better
Perfect as a silhouette
It's the click of the twist, we're on the edge of a cliff
Bluffing or running off it
It's time to pick pick pick pick

[Pre Chorus: John That]
That's just what we do
Watch your waves break through
I wanna see you too

[Chorus: Evan Walsh]
I twist a 40 while I'm staring at a pink sky
I pass it over you ain't got a chance to think why
And they say life is short but I've been alive
So we run and jump at high tide

[Verse 2: John That]
Now the vibe is right
Imma hit it all night
I been feeling alright
This is just my type of world
I wonder if we'll ever land
Everything we've planned
Been falling into plan like (uhhh)
Things you can't even imagine (uhhh)
I sit back and watch 'em happen (uhhh)
If only you believe (uhhh)
Now watch what we can weave ya
Girl coming through we coming late (coming late)
Do what we like no time to wait (yup)
Cuz life was made for living
Fuck forgiveness here's permission

[Pre Chorus: John That]
That's just what we do
Watch your waves break through
I wanna see you too

[Chorus: Evan Walsh]
I twist a 40 while I'm staring at a pink sky
I pass it over you ain't got a chance to think why
And they say life is short but I've been alive
So we run and jump at high tide

I twist a 40 while I'm staring at a pink sky
I pass it over you ain't got a chance to think why
And they say life is short but I've been alive
So we run and jump at high tide

[Outro: John That, Evan Walsh]
That's just
That's just
That's just what we do

So we run and jump at high tide

That's just
That's just
That's just
That's
That's just what we do

So we run and jump at high tide
