Lyrics:
Yeah another day another dollar, let 'em feed me
Anybody lying saying it was easy
And no no, not a day goes by
That I'm not waking up
Thinking about
The pressure of expectation is like a knife at your throat.
Beg to escape as the arrow rips through your heart.
Conditioned by a life of lies.
Second
The pressure of expectation is like a knife at your throat.
Beg to escape as the arrow rips through your heart.
Conditioned by a life of lies.
Second
So strange is the feeling
Sinking down below
Caught in the current
By the undertow
Silence now is falling
so quiet is the rage
Gasping
chance
Yet I never pulled the trigger
Laying in bed, regrets fill my head
Surrounded by cups of liquor
Outside the window the trees grow old
Green fields
Virgil Caine is the name
And I served on the Danville train
'Til Stoneman's cavalry came
And they tore up the tracks again
In the winter of '65
broke down walls with fabricated banter
You watched us all fall with your crooked smile
Now we're all stuck and we all live in shame
By your ruthless
radio
Cold sweat, vertigo
Got caught in the undertow
Black smoke in the sky
Beautiful butterfly
Big boy, don't you cry
You know you're gonna get
Virgil Caine is the name, and I served on the Danville train
'Til Stoneman's cavalry came and it tore up the tracks again
In the winter of '65, we
chiseled
By a measure
Weaving, tendrils
Break the pressure's tone
Slide on stone
The ripple, shone upon
Gleaming foam
Ebb and flow, a torrent
Illuminated
ever wanted was for someone who believed, believed
I'm step, step, step
Stepping in the water
Pulled in by the undertow
Step, step, step
Stepping in
All Day stolen in the afternoon
Heard your name over the PA
And thought of the undertow pulling me downward
Into a new darkness
That stupid darkness
When it started up
I was feeling down
When I found you
I was in the clouds
There's a hole in my head
There's confusion in my chest
So hold me by
tell you
you were loved by everyone
did we ever talk about
what to do when the best ones are gone?
Everything falls apart
everything breaks up
somehow
felt no more pain
Walking alone
Every temple knows
The art of letting go
Every undertow
Reminds me when to stay afloat
Oh the petals in the stone
the crest of the waves
foaming waves of the blackest of streams
deep undertows unfelt by the sheeple
where you weave the clearest of dreams
Forever you
Tiny European cars
Are dropping from the sky
They're wonderfully efficient
Engines fueled by Spanish wine
Maybe just a sip
To help us get
never know
Till I'm consumed by the undertow
The dry air moving slowly
Scattered clouds
My brain is empty
There's no way out
I'd rather be no where
For
Undercurrents, undertow
Brings a staple to my home
Boyfriend with the strongest shoulders
Lover who is coming over
I'm okay with violence
I'm okay
The sea is glistening in this state I'm in
The waves roll by
When the flood comes
it brings the undertow
I never know why...
Wanna breathe the air
Sinking down, holding my breath to count
The standing of time
I will drown in the distorted sounds
Of the world passing me by
Terrified gasps
Cold waves of salt engulfing the carcass
Blue and bloated lungs of soot
Keeper of the flame watch over them
Take this flesh to the undertow
Dread
on a fantastic voyage
Slide, slide, slippity-slide
I'm hittin' switches on the block in a '65
Come along and ride on a fantastic voyage
Slide, slide,
He sees his life just passing by
Just another number in a suit and tie
No purpose here
Nothing to give
Is this what it means to really live?
