The Tide - Greg Dulli

Control, you whisper that

You know everything I got

I’m a wreck when I find out

What this is for

See the writing on the stair

Immolation in the air

Without a trace, and I

So softly disappear

Like the wind

I got things to do before I fade away

You can steal me blind

But you will never find

You will never find

And I told you how to surf that tidal wave

You know many ways to buy another day

But a simple lie can play out like a curse

Never better but forever at your worst

Let us go deep now

Should your will define you, let’s all take a bow

You can steal me blind

But you will never find

You will never

Somebody’s in the way

Somebody’s in the wave

Like you right here by my side

And millionaires

Read your scripture on the stairs

You’re an island

You’re an island

And a simple lie can play out like a curse

Never better, but forever at your worst

And I never got to thank her for the ride

Each and every time

She’s so heavy

Heavy (Heavy)

Heavy (Heavy)

Heavy (Heavy)

Heavy
