Lyrics

alive and well

[Verse 1]

I was so confused, I couldn't understand it

I tried to please too many people

And somehow every one of them is pissed off at me

The exact opposite of what I intended has materialised

And now everyone I know who's alive and well is pissed off at me

Including me

[Chorus]

Going long, I push the waves back

Kicking down in all that blue and black

Dig 'em in and reach an impasse

Never ever not going to feel that

[Verse 2]

I was so confused, I couldn't understand it

I tried to please everyone to no more than a sufficient degree

And somehow every party suspected this was my intention

And everyone's pissed off at me

Everybody

Everyone's pissed off at me

[Chorus]

Going long, I push the waves back

Kicking down in all that blue and black

Dig 'em in and reach an impasse

Never ever not going to feel that

Gone far, but haven't looked back

Fading intellect, yeah, that's what you said

There, the only cataclysm

I build a blaze there, yeah

It's pushing night-wide

[?]

Going long, I push the waves back

Kicking down in all that blue and black

Dig 'em in and reach an impasse

Never ever not going to feel that

Gone far, but haven't looked back

Fading intellect, yeah, that's what you said

There, the only cataclysm

I recognise [?]
