I let it fall, my heart, And as it fell you rose to claim it Then I saw spades Until you promised that you would save me
Once I felt strong But now my knees are far too weak And I walk a fine line Tryin' not to fall down at your feet
And there's a side to you That I always knew, always knew. And yeah, the things you said They were never true, never true, But the ghost you chase He's not comin' back, comin' back
[Chorus:] I'll be taken by the sea If I get lost, don't come lookin' for me Took the stars from my eyes Let myself fall into darkness one last time, one last time
When I'm with you I'm at home I'm not alone Feel you here forever You and me together Nothing gets better
But there's a side of me That I'll never show, never show Hide the truth in things That you'll never know, never know, And the ghosts I see Well, they're always there, always there
[Chorus:] Oh, I'll be taken by the sea If I get lost, don't come lookin' for me Took the stars from my eyes Let myself fall into darkness one last time, one last time
I'll be taken by the sea Violet waves wash over me Well, I burned paradise And the tides aren't enough to rescue me, rescue me
[Bridge:] And when I reach that other shore I'll be reminded of what I'm lookin' for Even now when my world is over I can't help myself from longin' for you
[Chorus x2:] Oh, I'll be taken by the sea If I get lost, don't look for me Took the stars from my eyes Let myself fall into darkness one last time, one last time
Let me drown, oh Let me drown
I'll be taken by the sea Violet waves wash over me Oh, I burned paradise And the tides aren't enough to rescue me, rescue me
Oh, oh let me drown Oh, let me drown
Oh, no Oh, oh, nooo Let me drown, Let me drown, ohhhhhh!
Oh noooo! Oh, let me drown Let me go, Let me goooooo!
