crowd surf off a cliff
i’m having a serious emily obsession. how could i not…
cursed with a love that you can’t express.
it’s not for a fuck or a kiss.
rather give the world away than wake up lonely,
everywhere in every way i see you with me.
crowd surf off a cliff, land out on the ice.
crowd surf off to sea, float toward the beach.
if you find me, hide me, i don’t know where i’ve been.
if you find me, hide me, i don’t know where I’ve been.
are we breathing, are we breathing, are we wasting our breath.
it won’t be enough to be rich.
rather give the world away than wake up lonely,
everywhere in every way i see you with me.
all the babies tucked away in their beds,
we’re out here screaming, “the life that you thought through is gone!”
can’t wind down, the ending outlasting the move. i wake up lonely.
crowd surf off a cliff, land out on the ice.
crowd surf off to sea, float toward the beach.
if you find me, hide me, i don’t know where i’ve been.
when you phone me tell me everything i did.
if i’m sorry you lost me you’d better make it quick
‘cause this call costs late where you live, it’s late where you live.
