lyrics

There’s sharks in the water
They’re letting me down
Broke the bag with my teeth
Tore my dorsal fins out

I could dive to the basement
I could live all my days
Butterfly through the pavement
Shudder while I’m awake

Are you awake with me?
Would you walk through the wake with me?

I got salt on my tongue
Keep the tide in my lap
I’ll get pulled to the bottom
By the time I relax

Catch my breath on the altar
Moments culled from the break
Watch the roadside fall in
And wonder why I’m awake

Are you awake with me?
Would you walk through the wake with me?

Are you awake with me?
Would you walk through the wake with me?
