lyrics

you're like a second story man on the walls i've built. you infect my mind, you're always looking for the same thrill. you mapped out my life. you drew it in the sand, but i've kept the grains you swept away. i'll ruin what you've planned.

the tide is closing in. it's too late to learn to swim. can't you hear it whispering, "we're going in"

you're the third man on the match, and i've got you in my sights. i can pull the trigger; i can make this right tonight. you're standing on the shore, staring back land. the sun rises behind you and your shadow hits the sand.

the tide is closing in. it's too late to learn to swim. can't you hear it whispering, "we're going in"

you're the fourth horseman, and i'm this twisted angel. i've been judging myself for so long now that it's no longer painful. you mapped out my life. you drew it in the sand, but i've kept the grains you swept away. i swear i'll ruin everything you've planned.

the tide is closing in. it's too late to learn to swim. can't you hear it whispering, "we're going in"
