I tried to be a faithful man
I tried to hide a taste for the anger
I didn't indicate that I care
Every time you'd walk away I'd bring it outside
'Cause I didn't have the grace or the brains

And it probably matters
It probably matters
I didn't have the grace or the brains
And it probably mattered
It probably mattered
I was pawning my days away

By the seaside then
On the beach with my friends
Wanna see you dive in

When did you ever hesitate to be mine
It was hard to keep the pace when you were land sliding
I tried to be a faithful friend
Couldn't always keep you safe when we were ending
But I always had the time for the medicine

And it probably matters
It probably matters
I didn't have the grace or the brains
And it probably mattered
It probably mattered
I was pawning my days away

By the seaside then
On the beach with my friends
Wanna see you dive in
Beyond the reef it's thriving
On the beach we're rising
Wanna see you dive in

Oh yeah
I need answers
I need answers
I need answers
I need answers
By the seaside then

How many hours I gave for this
How many hours of pain and bliss

How many hours I gave for this
It probably matters (how many hours I gave for this)
It probably matters (how many hours of pain and bliss)
It probably matters (how many hours I gave for this)
