No-Man

self-defeat in sparkling eyes

breaking up the family ties
she smiles and tells another lie
all you want to do is cry

hopes drowning in the hurt
song of the surf
song of the surf

and as she takes the sun away
she asks you how you feel today
the sky has turned pavement grey
the remnants of her body spray
still lingers on your shirt

song of the surf
song of the surf

everytime you catch her eyes
all you want to do is cry
silence growing

everytime you catch her eyes
all you want to do is hide
heartbeat slowing

hopes drowning in the hurt
song of the surf

silence growing, heartbeat slowing
we’re just going nowhere
