lyrics

Lifeguard

You must have really been dying on the inside
to go to such extents - They must have really hurt you
The way you walked straight out, right into high tide
Complete and utter disregard for the harm it would do
I could tell you were disturbed even before it happened
Your face lacked emotion and your eyes appeared subdued
It’s as if you now belonged in the deep end
You didn’t even struggle as the current took you

I can’t save you – You’ve drifted too far out
I can’t save you – I can’t even save myself
I can’t save you – It’s not really what I do
I can’t save you
I don’t think you want me to
Wave your hand
Say goodbye.
You are going under

You must have truly given up on contentment
Your determination really came through
From the shore I simply watched with amazement
As you moved out further till I couldn’t see you
Could it be that you have always had a death wish?
That this was bound to happen no matter what I do
Or was there maybe some method to prevent this?
I guess we’ll never know, we will never have a clue

I can’t save you – You’ve drifted too far out
I can’t save you – I can’t even save myself
I can’t save you – It’s not really what I do
I can’t save you – I don’t think you want me to
Wave your hand
Say goodbye.
You are going under
