[Verse 1: Baker] Gettin' deep I'm out of my depth at a public beach I never listened, I had to see for myself It's comin' in waves Shoots through my mind like a pinball strayed Friendly fire, point-blank [Pre-Chorus: Baker] Salt in my lungs Holdin' my breath Makin' peace with my inevitable death [Chorus: All, Baker] I guess I did alright considering Tried to be a halfway decent friend Wound up a bad comedian An honest fool with more bad habits Than you can count [Verse 2: All, Baker] There we were Was anyone ever so young? Breakin' curfew with illegal fireworks Unpackin' God in the suburbs [Bridge: Baker, All] I'm swimmin' back You say you don't havе to make it bad Just 'cause you know how [Outro: Baker] Writin' the words To thе worst love song you've ever heard Soundin' out the foreign characters An incantation like an anti-curse Or even a blessing
