lyrics

Swimming in a raging sea
The undertows don’t bother me
I’m too preoccupied with lies
From ones in permanent disguise

They’re holding on to what they’ve said
Although their ideals are dead
They’re living life in rooms with rows
And rows of walls and no windows

Walking through a hurricane
I’m too preoccupied with pain
The things that they’re saying to me
It hurts me so, oh can’t you see

(chorus)
Can’t you see?
It’s lonely
Can’t you see?
Those things bother me

Underneath an angry sky
I’m holding on, but don’t know why
I’m thinking I should let them go
I’m thinking “yes”, I’m feeling “no”

(chorus)

(bridge)
And they say all the words
But they don’t understand
And they speak of these things
Like it’s their promised land
And it takes all my strength
Not to scream in their face
That version of what we should be
Is a total disgrace
