I should know

It was there

Right in front of my eyes

Skeletons and everything

On a blanket of sand

Where the creatures had died

Held my breath - oh what a stink.

High up a riot of cries

All the birds are circling

Sure that the moon will provide

Hoping that he's hurrying.

If we hit high tide

The banks are gonna break

The flood comes rushing over

The castles that we made.

If we hit high tide

I will let the water

Drag me back into the ocean

Back into the ocean.

Thought the wall

That we built

On the beach

Would be strong

I tried to make it beautiful

Pulling down

Tiny stones

With my hands

I was wrong

I started my own funeral it's.

Easy to see it too late

When the wave comes crashing in

Trying to plan my escape

Stop myself from drowning.

If we hit high tide

The banks are gonna break

The flood comes rushing over

The castles that we made.

If we hit high tide

I will let the water

Drag me back into the ocean

Back into the ocean.

Deep beneath the sea I wait

Counting on the current's sway

To pick me up and start again

Does the circle never end.

If we hit high tide

The banks are gonna break

The flood comes rushing over

The castles that we made.

If we hit high tide

I will let the water

Drag me back into the ocean

Back into the ocean.

Back into the ocean

Back into the ocean.
