Lyrics

[Verse 1]
For you, my dear sister
Holding onto me forever
Disco dancing with the rapists
Your only crime is silence
Can't work at this anymore
Can't move, I want to stay at home
Tied up to all these crutches
Never far from your hands
[Verse 2]
Tsunami, tsunami came washin' over me
Tsunami, tsunami came washin' over me
[Verse 3]
Can't speak, can't think
Won't talk, won't walk
Doctors tell me that I'm cynical
I tell them that it must be chemical
So what am I doing, girl?
Cry into my drink, I disappear
Eyes for teeth, grating over me
Bring down the shadows of my mind
Sleep and breathe under our sheets
Inhale the anxiety in between, in between, in between, in between
[Verse 4]
Tsunami, tsunami came washin' over me
Tsunami, tsunami came washin' over me
Tsunami, tsunami came washin' over me
Tsunami, tsunami came washin' over me
Through September under the weather
[Verse 5]
In between, in between, in between, in between
[Verse 6]
Tsunami, tsunami came washin' over me
Tsunami, tsunami came washin' over me
Tsunami, tsunami came washin' over me
Tsunami, tsunami came washin' over me
Take the GI's, I will have the spies
