Seaside

[Verse 1] We dance on wet pavements Swim in puddles with sharks I'll hold you so closely as they wrap their jaws around me I’ll sing you to sleep, my love And hold the boombox on my shoulder I will carry these boulders Sing it all out loud, say, "I love you" from the crowd You won't look and I'll just play [Chorus] Sitting pretty by the seaside Throwing rocks at passersby I just want you to notice when I’m not around I want the absence to feel profound [Verse 2] You said punch me in the face or I'll do it for you Right here, right now I wanna see my lights knocked out You had a black eye for weeks, you had a story for months We've got confessions for years with the names blacked out Kill your ambitions or we'll do it for you Kill your darlings 'cause they'll never hold you like us These words on repeat are all we need Are all we need [Chorus] Sitting pretty by the seaside Throwing rocks at passersby I just want you to notice when I'm not around I want the absence to feel profound Sitting pretty on your queen-sized bed Watching your neighbour crawl under the garden fence We'll sing I can’t help falling in love Again and again till it means nothing again [Bridge] Everyone’s getting older Everything feels that much colder And I don't know if I’ve got the same skin that I wore When we first put pen to paper, wrote some songs about the weather Everyone's getting older Everything feels that much colder And I don't know if I've got the same skin that I wore When we first put pen to paper, wrote some songs about the weather [Chorus] Sitting pretty by the seaside And throwing rocks at passersby I just want you to notice when I’m not around I want the absence to feel profound Sitting pretty on your queen-sized bed Watching your neighbour crawl under the garden fence We'll sing I can't help falling in love Again and again till it means nothing again
