Train Under Water

[Verse 1]

You were born inside of a raindrop

I watched you falling to your death

And the sun, well, she could not save you

She'd fallen down too, now the streets are wet

[Verse 2]

Body of water, toxic and timeless

Atlantic Ocean, New York skyline

I always get lost when I leave the village

So I couldn't come meet you in Brooklyn last night

[Chorus 1]

But I sing glory from my lowest

And I will say peace to the people I meet

While the world waits for an explosion

That instant of life that wipes the slate clean

[Post-Chorus 1]

So don't be fooled, no, don't get lied to

Love was always cruel

And don't act strange, don't be a stranger

It happened to me, now it's happening to you

But if you take that train under water then we could talk it through

[Guitar Solo]

[Verse 3]

Well if I could tame all of my desires

Wait out the weather that howls in my brain

Because it seems that it's always changing

The wind's indecision, the sorrowful rain

[Verse 4]

Yeah, I was a postcard, I was a record

I was a camera until I went blind

And now I'm riding all over this island

Looking for something to open my eyes

[Chorus 2]

But I still sing glory from my high rise

And I will say thanks if you're pouring my drinks

While the world waits for an explosion

That moment in time when we'll be set free

[Post-Chorus 2]

So don't stay mad, just let some time pass

And in the morning you'll wake feeling new

And if I don't come back, I mean, if I get side tracked

It's only cause I wanted to

I'm keeping up with the moon on an all-night avenue

[Guitar Solo]
