Lyrics
Undertow
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
She said she couldn't do it if she tried
But she never tried, she'll never try
It's running through her veins like cyanide
It gets her by, but just for a while
How long, can she keep on chasing something wrong?
Memories, of how she could've made it
The waves are crashing down, she's caught in the undertow
Drowning in the sea
She's looking for a light but there's nowhere to go
Undertow
She sees the world through hazy blood-shod eyes
just looking for another high
She lives by golden rules that don't apply
Life passed her by, and I tell you why
How long, can she keep on chasing something wrong?
Memories, of how she could've made it
The waves are crashing down, she's caught in the undertow
Drowning in the sea
She's looking for a light but there's nowhere to go
Undertow
How long, can she keep on chasing something wrong?
Memories, of how she could've made it
The waves are crashing down, she's caught in the undertow
Drowning in the sea
She's looking for a light but there's nowhere to go
The waves are crashing down, she's caught in the undertow
Drowning in the sea
She's looking for a light but there's nowhere to go
Undertow
