lyrics

It’s rained for more than forty days and endless nights.
The lightning strikes the bell for one more meaningless fight.
In jealousy and bitter ecstasy we lie.
I guess we’ll watch Mother Nature, as she lights the sky with her angry cries.

The ebb and flow of waves come crashing on the beach.
The promise of our glory days seems out of reach.
Forgetting what it feels like to be held that way.
And now it’s mostly silence and a slow decay.
Why do we both stay?

Chorus:
We can’t help but play each other’s games.
Feels so right when we lie in shame.
To you, it might not be all the same, but I’ve gotta tell you anyhow,
You’re just what I needed right now.
You’re just what I needed right now.

The thunder leaves, finally, we both start to cry.
Sitting bare, watching the sea, we both wonder why,
Did you scare me and I scare you, darlin', oh so bad?
I guess we didn’t realize the good thing we had.

[Chorus]

If you need me, too, then we can see what I won’t go through.
