I should know
It was there
Right in front of my eyes
Skeletons and everything
On a blanket of sand
Where the creatures had died
Held my breath - oh what a stink

High up a riot of cries
All the birds are circling
Sure that the moon will provide
Hoping that he's hurrying

If we hit high tide
The banks are gonna break
The flood comes rushing over
The castles that we made

If we hit high tide
I will let the water
Drag me back into the ocean
Back into the ocean

Thought the wall
That we built
On the beach
Would be strong
I tried to make it beautiful
Pulling down
Tiny stones
With my hands
I was wrong
I started my own funeral it's

Easy to see it too late
When the wave comes crashing in
Trying to plan my escape
Stop myself from drowning

If we hit high tide
The banks are gonna break
The flood comes rushing over
The castles that we made

If we hit high tide
I will let the water
Drag me back into the ocean
Back into the ocean

Deep beneath the sea I wait
Counting on the current's sway
To pick me up and start again
Does the circle never end

If we hit high tide
The banks are gonna break
The flood comes rushing over
The castles that we made

If we hit high tide
I will let the water
Drag me back into the ocean
Back into the ocean

Back into the ocean
Back into the ocean
