I thought that I knew love
But it was just a wave crashing over us
And in the breaths between the ones we meant to be
I had my head under my feet
you knew the way things were
you knew the way they would be
we knew exactly how it’d end
Strays on a stale sea
Oh anchor the engine to a canyon far beneath
Water rushed out from the boards below
So I started slicking my hair with the kerosine
And I’m preparing for a burial in sea
But I can’t see the lighthouse
Yet I’m praying that these waters don’t take me
Cause I can’t see the lighthouse
I was screaming that the ship was sinking
but you were telling me to just keep drinking
Corded in the parts again
arms and legs at the bottom of the ocean
and the thing that made it so much harder
was the fact that you were someone’s daughter
I thought that I knew love
But it was just a wave crashing over us
