Lyrics
[Verse 1]
You knew me and my spiral
Happiness tidal
It comes and it goes
And I sank into the water
How I drifted farther away from the coast
[Verse 2]
Sometimes I get this feeling
I was breathing someone else's air
Two thousand miles away from home
Under that sky, I tried to make my peace with fear
[Verse 3]
So I guess I'll build a boat and live alone
Lord, I'll be the lost one (Oh-oh, oh-oh)
Oh, I'll teach myself to swim and live in my head
And make sense of all my thoughts
And if I never reach the land or live again
Lord, I'll be just fine (Oh-oh, oh-oh)
Yeah, I'll drift until I'm dead, and until then
I'll be the lost one, I'll be the lost one
[Verse 4]
I fell into a pattern
Where nothin' would matter if I didn't care
To be so close to a coastline
To know that in my life, I'll never be there
[Verse 5]
'Cause sometimes I get this feeling
I've been breathin' someone else's air
Oh-oh-oh-oh
[Verse 6]
So, I guess I'll build a boat and live alone
Lord, I'll be the lost one (Oh-oh, oh-oh)
Oh, I'll teach myself to swim and live in my head
And make sense of all my thoughts
And if I never reach the land or live again
Lord, I'll be just fine (Oh-oh, oh-oh)
Yeah, I'll drift until I'm dead, and until then
I'll be the lost one, I'll be the lost one
And it wears me out
[Verse 7]
All the demons underneath the tide
But I sink like a stone
But all the weight of all these dreams of mine
[Verse 8]
And I wish you well
You can't save someone too far to find
But it's wearin' me out
And it's stormy in the sea tonight
In the sea tonight
[Verse 9]
So I guess I'll build a boat and live alone
Lord, I'll be the lost one (Oh-oh, oh-oh)
Oh, I'll teach myself to swim and live in my head
And make sense of all my thoughts
And if I never reach the land or live again
Lord, I'll be just fine (Oh-oh, oh-oh)
Yeah, I'll drift until I'm dead, and until then
I'll be the lost one, I'll be the lost one
