By The Shore

Meet me by the shore
I can see the waves are changing course
And the lines grow fast in your palms
See these tides, my love, are not at stake for you and me
Waiting by the shore
Captain, I'm not sure
Why are we alive when the enemy's dead?
The answers foam by the shore
Like multiplying digits rise and fall
And like lovers attending your parties
We prey on the dark
I drink
You drink on your own
And your heart is a burning disaster
So beat on the drums and we'll burn that much faster
Prey on my soul and I'll show you disaster
Beat on the drums
And we'll burn that much faster
Oh, my love
So meet me by the shore
Can't you feel the waves are changing course
And the lines won't show you the way
All this water cold
I'm wide-awake
Like you on the shore
You alight.
