Light leaks
Glittering streams
On the last days of summer
The road signs
Warn of riptides
One after the other
We were swimming with the out of towners
You were diving in, waves crashing down
You said if you get too far out
Just swim parallel
‘Cause heading straight for the shoreline gets dangerous
And I don’t think you could tell
It’s probably just as well
As I swallowed the quiet revelation
I’ve been weightless
And bareilly hanging on
Quietly trying
And hurting all along
I don’t wanna go against myself anymore
I don’t wanna go against myself anymore
Night falls
Local’s last call
At the bar on the corner
The TV makes you angry
But we can stay if you wanna
There’s a movie on, I think you’ve seen it
So if I let you in I didn’t mean it
If you get too far out
Just swim parallel
‘Cause heading straight for the shoreline gets dangerous
Sure enough you’re scared
The current’s rough out there
And it will break you in half trying to change it
I’ve been weightless
And bareilly hanging on
Violent
And hurting all along
I don’t wanna go against myself anymore
I don’t wanna go against myself anymore
