The Tide Lyrics by Lightnin’ Luke

Volume 2

2019

[Verse 1]
There was no one to help them
On that particular day
The door has been locked
And there was never a key, anyway
And I'm so tired of lying
And thinking
It wasn’t that way
I'm covered in dust
And can't tell just what’s in my way
[Chorus]
Wash me down
In the memories
Crashing ‘cross the hills
That shape my life
Where I find
My direction when things ain't right
[Post-Chorus]
Lead the way
Hoist the colors
Blowing deep into the night
Though we're blind
We must still keep the will to fight
There's always a light
Glowing on the back of the tide
[Verse 2]
Tried to get it all down
But again, I just can't find thе words
I tried to sing out
But I drifted back into the hеrd
They say to sing loud!
But I ain't your fucking songbirds
I knelt on the ground
And dug my hands in the dirt
[Chorus]
Wash me down
In their memories
It's crashing ‘cross the hills
That shape my life
Where I find
My direction when things ain't right
[Post-Chorus]
Lead the way
Hoist the colors
Burning deep into the night
Though we’re blind
We must still keep the will to fight
There’s always a light
Oh, in the back of the tide
