The Teenage Runaways - Waves lyrics

I was born and raised at the beach The sun was never far from my reach I grew attatched to the f**ing sand Wrinkles took over my two hands Man I loved the waves We'd watch and wait for the sun to rise Shed some light into my blue sky Oh my, I loved the waves We went back and forth, back and forth, Wanted to go south to shore, but went north We went forth and back, forth and back, Never understood why you didn't come back Until now Back to the beach house, You wore that nice white blouse, I guess I went too fast We both crashed and f**ed on the backyard sand So hard you couldn't stand Saw the sweat coming from the glands We both tanned It was totally unplanned But I liked surprises We layed there paralyzed I memorized the pattern of your heartbeat I guess you tried to be discreet Cause I was never much into disguises But you had me hypnotized, I didn't mind it We were out so long we saw the sun set and rise I found out who you really are and now I'm traumatized My heart and mind have both capsized I can't believe I wanted you to stay My skies have turned to skewed hues of gray Now I'm drowning in booze And my tasteful tears too, There's your cue Pursue the dreams that I anchored you down from, I guess you found one, Because all you left was a letter, It said you've found someone better, I'm severed, but still, I love the waves You threw your things out through the window I saw it through the panes I hid my pain with the vain smile that's stained on my plain face, I'm a disgrace, You packed up the rental, tried to be gentle but I know damn well that I have been replaced, Put in second place, Tried to erase you from my mind, But from my friends I am reminded They speak about you in malign, Oh my, I still, love the waves We went back and forth back and forth, Wanted to go south to shore but went north, We went forth and back, forth and back, You're gonna make me have a heart attack, Since you left I've been a mess, Let my stress get the best of me, I confess, you've really put me to the test, Rarely have any guests over, forgot what it's like to be sober, Wow, I let the waves control me But they don't own me, Now my sky is pitch black My clothes still reek of lilac I'm still attatched, I've developed a knack to chainsmoke, Dead calm days on the bay doing backstrokes Casted away on my watery grave Today the waves swept me away (ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh)
