Give Us the Pleasure That Comes with Sleep Then

We can hide inside When the sea begins to rise But soon the tide will take us too. Four seasons in a day Couldn't wash our wounds away And so the tide must take them too. So are you seated for the show? Or are you looking out the window Searching for a better view? Now that the rivers have all risen, Why didn't we listen to the warning clues? We took a hefty loan And now there's nothing left to own. We're being called for our cue But what was the reason For all of the treason That we put each other through? It's getting hard to breathe here. I think I better leave dear And go take kindly to Putting on my Sunday best And laying down to rest Under the skies fiery hue. And oh boy, Did you see the front page news? And oh boy, Life's no longer what you choose. Choose. Choose. I've been searching to and fro And wondering where we're gonna go And who you're gonna cling on to. Now that the rivers have all risen, Why didn't we listen to the warning clues?
