Red Tide Lyrics

We’re mechanical (yet off-time)
Inching closer to the beat
Our bodies sway in motion
To the rhythm and the heat
Flash, drop, turn
A Hail-Mary from one knee
As you arched your back into
Our fading memory

Viral and unstoppable in the Santa Ana breeze
You took it all from me

We set the valley on fire and danced in the flames
We threw the ashes to sea and prayed to the waves
We traded youth for the lamb and never slept the same
The ghetto birds keep us awake

We swam through red tide, we tread the glow
For seven years I fought the undertow For you and what’s it worth?

We set the valley on fire and danced in the flames
We threw the ashes to sea and prayed to the waves
We traded youth for the lamb and never slept the same
The ghetto birds keep us awake

And now we’re borderline obsolete
Formed up and cresting into defeat
Take this and follow it to the shore

We set the valley on fire and danced in the flames
We threw the ashes to sea and prayed to the waves
We traded youth for the lamb and never slept the same
The ghetto birds keep us awake
