Lyrics

[Verse 1]
The sea said goodbye to the shore
So the sun wouldn't notice
The seaweed that wrapped its
Arms around you
[Verse 2]
The carpet on my cheek
Feels like a forest
And I run through the tall trees
With your hand chasing me
[Verse 3]
The books that I keep by my bed
Are full of your stories
That I drew up from a little dream of mine
A little nightmare of yours
[Verse 4]
To be us, to take this plunge
To forgive and forget
And be the better man, to be a better man
To be a better man
[Verse 5]
So love me, mother
And love me, father
And love my sister
As well
[Verse 6]
The cat's silhouette
As big as a monster
In this concrete jungle
With street lights hanging their heads
[Verse 7]
So make all your last demands
For I will forsake you
And I'll meet your eyes for the very first time
For the very last
[Verse 8]
So love me, mother
And love me, father
And love my sister
As well
[Verse 9]
So love me, mother
And love me, father
And love my brother
As well
[Verse 10]
So love me, mother
And love me, father
And love my sister
As well
[Verse 11]
So love me, mother
And love me, father
And love my brother
As well
[Verse 12]
I met a man today
And he smiled back at me
Now there are thoughts like these
That keep me on my feet
That keep me on my feet
