lyrics

The Undertow

(Nana Nana Na Na, ha)

I see you’re playing with fire
I see you’re hiding it well
A smoke ring in the air
a little halo from hell.
I see myself in your eyes
I feel you calling my name.
My tears won’t put out the fire
so let’s go dance in the rain.

Well you’ve been running for miles
and soon you’ll be out of breath,
and you’ll be faced with the truth
just like the notes on this clef.
It’s so cold where you are
I’m burning up way down south.
It started with a kiss
now there’s a gun in my mouth.

God bless our hearts.

Please don’t bury me so far below.
If you’re gonna put me down won’t you drop me in the under tow.

Well that’s not you anymore
you don’t look like that now.
Once you were seventeen
so darlin’ please take a bow.
Cause you’re a heartbreaker now,
you’re moving up in the trade.
Positions opening up
so darlin’ sharpen your blade.

God bless your heart.

Please don’t bury me so far below.
If you’re gonna put me down won’t you drop me in the under tow.
The current may be strong but the misery is not slow.
Please don’t bury me so far below.

(Guitar Solo)

I’m living dangerous now
My ID is a fake.
I turn the microphone up
I go to bed with a snake.
I’m going to a reunion.
My three year since myself.
We’re taking rational shots
and taking hits to my health.

God bless my heart.

Please don’t bury me so far below.
If you’re gonna put me down won’t you drop me in the under tow.
The current may be strong but the misery is not slow.
Please don’t bury me so far below.
Please don’t bury me so far below.
Please don’t bury me so far below.
Below.
I see you’re playin’ with fire.
