    Sold Out

lyrics

Wade out from the sand.
You shouldn’t forget whatever can make you brave
Beneath the fears that you’ve fought off for years
Find whatever will keep you sane.

No complications to comprehend
Far out in the waves, you float
You’re so far away that you can’t pretend
Far out in the waves, it’s wonderful

Way out in the waiting water
You ought to see us drown.
Still awake as the waves wash ashore,
You’ve got to wonder how it will feel
When we see what it means to be

Once I was there,
My head in the waves too deep
The soul had passed the tides
Still you’re just sinking far
To the waiting wonderful
What are you hoping to find?

You’re slipping away from consciousness
Far out in the waves, you won’t
You can’t understand how it could come to this,
Far out in the waves, it’s wonderful

I’d pull you out if I could, I’d throw myself in with you
And all the demons you faced, I would face them with you
I would follow you down to the depths of the seas
I would follow you there if you’d come out alive and breathing

I’ll be holding your hand, no matter which way you choose
I just hope you come back as the same person I knew
I will follow you down to the depths of the sea
In the end I just hope you’re alive and breathing

Once I was there
Sinking more
Into the waiting wonderful
What are you hoping to find?
