The sun gets higher
the tide gets lower
the beach gets bigger
or the beach gets smaller
The sun stabs my eyes as I
get higher in the bushes by the water
and I will measure my time
in how well I remember those nights
and everyone I ever loved
still dancing in the basement of my heart
And tell me is it sad or is it sweet
How often I still think of you?
The sun gets lower
The tide gets higher
the beach gets smaller
or the beach gets larger
And my eyes get redder
As my heart sinks lower
And I wish the water would take me farther away
and everyone I loved
still dancing in the basement of my heart
sometimes I wish I could rip it apart
And tell me is it sad or is it sweet
How often I still think of you?
And you don't have to tell me
How fucking bittersweet it is
we ever met at all
we ever met at all
When you're not around
I don't wanna be around
I'm not gonna be around anymore
When you're not around
I don't wanna be around
I'm not gonna be around anymore
When you're not around
I won't wanna be around
I won't be around anymore
When you're not around
I don't wanna be around
I'm not gonna be around anymore
