I thought that I knew love
but it was just the wave crashing over us
and in the breaths between the ones we meant to breath
I had my head under my feet
you knew the way things were
you knew the way they would be
we knew exactly how it'd end
oh oh oh oh oh
oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
strays on a stable sea
i'll anchor the engine to a canyon far beneath(?)
the water rushed up from the boards below
so i started slicking my hair with the kerosene
you knew the way things were
you knew the way they would be
we knew exactly how it'd end
And I'm preparing for a burial at sea
and I can't see the lighthouse
yeah I'm praying that these waters don't take me
cause I can't see the lighthouse
oh oh oh oh oh
oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
oh oh oh oh oh oh
oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
I was screaming that the ship was sinking
but you were telling me to just keep drinking
quartered in the parts again (?)
arms and legs in the bottom of the ocean
and the thing that made it so much harder
is the fact that you were someones daughter
I knew the way things were
I knew the way they would be
I knew exactly how it'd end
And I can't see the lighthouse
and I'm preparing for a burial at sea
but I can't see the lighthouse
yeah I'm praying that these waters don't take me
cause I can't see the lighthouse
I thought that I knew love
but it was just a wave crashing over us
