Tidal Wave Lyrics by When There Is None

Warpaint

2014

[Verse 1]
Big expressions often turn out empty
While small words tend to grow
That's why I choke on my own thoughts
Who could've thought that a single stitch
Could drown everything inside
All at once

[Chorus]
I'm a light bulb when you turn me on
I burn out

[Verse 2]
We're all daughters, we're all sons
With a burden to bear and shoes to fill
All on our own
Expectations and disappointments
So please don't search between these lines for me
I'm already gone

[Chorus]
I'm a star when you see my light
I'm no more

[Bridge]
I'm everything I never said
A forgotten umbrella in the rain
But if you let go I'll let go with you

[Verse 3]
There'll be a thousand times when you're soaking wet
Chilled to the bone by heavy rains
At mercy of the sea
But when the storm is gone and we’re left on our own
We're still alive
You’ll see

[Chorus]
I'm a light house no shelter from the rain
I'm just there

[Verse 4]
I'm everything I never said
A forgotten umbrella in the rain
But if you let go I'll let go with you
Don't expect me to wash away your pain
Let me move you without a word
Whoaheyhoho!
The whole world at the top of its lungs

[Bridge]
I'm everything I never said
A forgotten umbrella in the rain
But if you let go I'll let go with you

[Outro]
Whoaheyhoho!
The whole world at the top of its lungs
Whoaheyhoho!
