Said The Whale - Big Wave Goodbye lyrics

I am aware of a red tide line, but I won't stop swimming here Fires blazing, sirens in the night, things just getting hotter Two days on the land, for ten months on the water Awaiting the big wave I'm waving a kiss to Vancouver All of the months of wondering why I'm just not good enough Over the years, under the rug, things just get heavy Now only a few days after and already You're drawing a fine line Now I'm waving goodbye to my city My lover and my friend Vancouver, they're tearing us apart We make it pretty, the way the world sees this city The way the world sees us from afar The way we are The way we're meant to be It's a different city now It's a different city
