Crocodile Lyrics by Uma

Cicadas - EP

2023

[VERSE 1]
Crocodile tears could make a river
It could take a while
A lover is a thief
Who can swim in my love, drown in my love
But leave in peace

[Chorus]
I wait in the shadows
I cave to the wind
I bathe in the shallows
I can't feel a thing

[VERSE 2]
Anybody else, limp dancing on the devil's throat
Swallowed its stone but I still float
Sink or swim, you could overflow
I drank from you until I choked

[PRE-Chorus]
Salt in your tears like the ocean
Soft in your head, broken open
Poking your fears, never spoken
Would you drown in love or devotion?

[Chorus]
I wait in the shadows
I cave to the wind
I bathe in the shallows
I can't feel a thing

[BRIDGE]
Now breath slow, run fast, death is near
Home is heaven, home is here
Now breath slow, run fast, death is near
Home is heaven, home is here

[Chorus] x2
(Now breath slow, run fast, death is near)
I wait in the shadows (Home is heaven, home is here)
(Now breathe slow, run fast death is near)
I cave to the wind (Home is heaven, home is here)
(Now breathe slow, run fast death is near)
I bathe in the shallows (Home is heaven, home is here)
(Now breathe slow, run fast death is near)
I can't feel a thing (Home is heaven, home is here)

[OUTRO]
I stray from the shadow
Tears in my wink
I can't feel the hour
I can't feel a thing
