The Ninth Wave

Swallow Me

The Ninth Wave


Rusting when it's new, the tie from me to you
I know it's bad, but I can't help it
It's breaking into two, oh what am I to do?
I know there's nothing I can do to help it

Struggling to breathe, but when am I to grieve
The loss of somebody I don't care about?
Strangers they can't die, their lives go flashing by
You're lost when you decided not to walk out

I don't mean it
I don't mean it
I don't mean it
I don't mean it

It's hard to say, it's hard to say
That I don't mean it
All the quiet boys and empty joys
I swear, I mean it
Your sighing is uncomfortable, but only when you stop it
It's tiring, it's tiring
To say the words you've wasted

You're inhaling all the fumes
They weren't meant for you
But I guess you found yourself in this position
Things are said to you, breaking you in two
Reducing you into this condition

I don't mean it
I don't mean it
I swear I mean it
I swear I mean it

It's hard to say, it's hard to say
That I don't mean it
All the quiet boys and empty joys
I swear, I mean it
Your sighing is uncomfortable, but only when you stop it
It's tiring, it's tiring
To say the words you've wasted

It's hard to say, it's hard to say
That I don't mean it
All the quiet boys and empty joys
I swear, I mean it
Your sighing is uncomfortable, but only when you stop it
It's tiring, it's tiring
To say the words you've wasted

It's hard to say, it's hard to say
That I don't mean it
All the quiet boys and empty joys
I swear, I mean it
Your sighing is uncomfortable, but only when you stop it
It's tiring, it's tiring
To say the words you've wasted

So swallow me
Swallow me, swallow me, swallow me
So swallow me
Swallow me, swallow me, swallow me
So punish me
Punish me, punish me, punish me
So swallow me
Swallow me, swallow me
Swallow me whole
Whoah-oh
