lyrics

Walk, if you dare, out to the ocean
The waking waters dance around your tanline toes
Look back to me, repeat our omen
If we both drown here, it's okay; no one will know

I'm not one to have regrets
But I stuck it through despite your apathy
And now I wish I'd stayed afloat
But dragging me down seemed to be your specialty

I can't pretend I didn't see it coming
It was almost like a self-fulfilling prophecy
I was so scared that you would fall right out of love
And then you did

I'm in the same situation now that I was in back then
Be nice if she'd just tell me how she wanted things to end
For once, an honest answer without trying to be my friend

I'm not one to have regrets
But I stuck it through despite your apathy
And now I wish I'd stayed afloat
But dragging me down seemed to be your specialty
