Bite the Tide

Lyrics:

To the world inside, you'll say goodbye,
from reading books to tying ties,
waking up to try to fly won't help no more.
Run and run, try to fly,
sought and sought, now it's time to hide,
waking up to try to try won't help no more.
Close your eyes, laugh a sigh,
leave the boat and bite the tide,
wading out to find your mind won't work no more.
Stare outside, mouth a "hi,"
hop a train and find out why,
waiting 'round in a pretty lie won't work no more.

Put your whole day in, get a minute out,
learn what that day was all about.
Put your whole heart in, get a moment out,
learn what that love was all about.
Put your whole life in, get a memory out,
learn what that life was all about.
It's just a noise that you make, the same as everyone else.
It's just a feeling that you chase, the same as anything else.
It's nothing new, it's been done before,
but it's so new to me.

Slow moving now, every star behind black clouds,
waking up just to fall asleep, it's easy.
Meeting the sound, of all the ones left on the ground,
staying up just to find a memory.
So float down, breathe in,
even if they're all leaving.
Pretty soon, the real world and your dreams will break even.
Float down, breathe in,
even if they're all leaving.
Pretty soon, the real world and your dreams will break even.
