lyrics

i need a friend to help me out
to get the waves to settle down
i think i might be bursting at the seams

the floor is giving out, you see
and i don’t know what’s underneath
it’s not so
easy as it seems

he built the house beneath my feet
and filled up with agony
that i and i alone was meant to keep

but these things are unmentionable
and i am not ephemeral
so maybe i should find someplace to sleep

but i’m keeping secrets,
i’m making motions
for you to come back
and throw me

overboard, overboard

i’m not so simple
(i'm not so simple)
to know your people
(know all your people)

‘cause you’re keeping secrets
dividing oceans
and you already threw me

overboard, overboard

i’m not so simple
(i'm not so simple)
to fuck your people
(fuck all your people)

and i would rather be okay
than live with you another day
so cut the ties that bind and try again

well you and i have done this dance
and i don’t need a second chance
to prove how much i loved you in the end
