Riptide Lyrics by Shrink the Giant

2014

[Verse 1]
You're far from here
You plant your feet
The train passes by, but you never meet
Tear it off so you start to feel
I think about it
I write it down
Send it on its way, but you still might drown
You just might sink
It's time to swim
You better fight or you're going in
[Chorus]
You've got to clear your head
Of all the crushing things they said
Learn to feel your blood flow
Oh-oh oh-oh oh-oh
You're in the riptide
Oh-oh oh-oh oh-oh
You're in the riptide
Oh-oh oh-oh oh-oh
You're in the riptide
Move aside
[Verse 2]
It started calm
Then you got wet
It's amazing how easily you forget
Just how it was when it was smooth
We pulled for you
They moved you through
You started hеlping when they needed you to
You fеlt the strain
You hurt your brain
Do you really want to feel the pain?
[Chorus]
You've got to clear your head
Of all the crushing things they said
Learn to feel your blood flow
Oh-oh oh-oh oh-oh
You're in the riptide
Oh-oh oh-oh oh-oh
You're in the riptide
Oh-oh oh-oh oh-oh
You're in the riptide
Move aside
[Bridge]
Don't fight (the current to get free)
Don't fight the current (to get free)
Don't fight the current to get free
(Don't fight the current to get free)
Don't fight (the current to get free)
Don't fight the current (to get free)
Don't fight the current
Move aside
(Don't fight the current)
[Chorus]
You've got to clear your head
Of all the crushing things they said
Learn to feel your blood flow
Oh-oh oh-oh oh-oh
You're in the riptide
Oh-oh oh-oh oh-oh
You're in the riptide
Oh-oh oh-oh oh-oh
You're in the riptide
Move aside
