Lyrics

As a young boy - used to dream of monsters in my home What was that? “They’re pulling me under!” As soon as I’d die I woke. You die in a dream to save your life, Die when you feel the knife to your throat - Wake up safely in your own bed All the demons running through your head, In a minute there’ll be nothing left. Let them have their way with you, There’s always something you can do You might have a day or two before the memory fades Let them have their way with you, There’s always something you can do We get older and we move into a family home Working harder, but the money we got don’t grow. Tired of all the sleepless nights, Tired of all the knives that they hold In the country for the weekend, By the ocean on the next trip - Trying to tell you where the time went Trying to remember just when we met You said since your letter Things got better and better I’m driving home and I feel... Even more tired than when I left Water rising over my head Trying to show people I love them Wondering when it’s gonna make sense Sweet things I remember Just get better and better Rounding the corner I see... You alone out on the headland Across the rocks to meet an old friend The sky begins to turn a deep red I call out but you don’t turn your head Crumpled in your hand the message Feeling breathless as I grasp it Vision fading as I fall there The sound of laughter fills the darkness And then your letter Starts receding forever As if blown by the wind See the words that burn in my head Vicious whisper flickers past says Hitch your life to what you think’s best In a minute there’ll be nothing left Unless... [WAKE UP] Let them have their way with you There’s always something you can do You might have a day or two Before the memory fades Let them have their way with you There’s always something you can do See they could chew you out - In a New York Minute And it gets better It just better and better, It just gets better and better Rounding the corner I see... You alone out on the headland Across the rocks to meet an old friend The sky begins to turn a deep red The sound of laughter fills the dark
