Tidal Wave Lyrics by The Max Levine Ensemble

0

I wake up screaming and I'm hardly breathing
And I can't believe it, the things that I'm dreaming
The way that they're talking, tho it isn't shocking
No, what hurts most of all is that I can't stop it
And you can't deny that there's something wrong
When I was born into a world with an atom bomb
And I can't believe that even in my dreams
I'd be feeling it end

There's a great big tidal wave
And you can tell who you want, but you're not gonna be saved
And I can't believe this is happening for real

Colder and colder, your head on my shoulder
Should I do what I'm told? Just wanna live till I'm older
Hands in my pocket, and a head like a rocket
Should I do what I'm told, or should I just fuck it?
And I can't believe they'd create a device
To make it easier to take other people's lives
And I can't believe it'd even cross their minds
It never crossed my mind, it never crossed my mind

With no regard for human life
It's our principals that we sacrifice
And when it's "us vs. them" when will you realize
That everyday it's getting colder and colder

And if you can say that you can fight to win
Well then you're wrong again, well then you're wrong again
And if you can say that there's a means to an end
Well then you're wrong again, that's just where it begins
I've got my mind set on not dying
It's getting cold, but I'm still trying
If I do what I'm told, well then I'd be lying
And I can't pretend
