Lyrics:
I still remember the night you tried to kiss me through the window
I tried to settle for the taste of touching glass over the sound of answering machines
Because, I love the way your voice, it says it's gonna get back to me someday
As I brace my knees you hold me down with your eyes
And someday I'll drive, close both my eyes
We'll swim in circles in the blue light
It's gonna be the best day of my life
And, oh my God, you'll never be as beautiful without me
Beauty needs an animal to breathe
Baby, you'll be alright as long as I'm not
So do that dance in the dark
Sharpen your teeth and bite as hard as you want
And someday I'll drive, close both my eyes
We'll swim in circles in the blue light
And I just want to fade away into the sky under the sea
A million kisses underwater as we walk into the ocean
This is gonna be the best day of my life
A celebration of an ending
And do you really trust your tongue or did you bury the taste?
And is this fantasy real or is it all homemade?
And did you call me last night just cause you couldn't get laid?
Ladies and gentlemen, I introduce the selfish machine
Do you think you're the only one?
Do you think you're the only one afraid of this machine?
And someday I'll drive, close both my eyes
I'll be your breath if you can be mine
And I just want to fade away into the sky under the sea
A million kisses underwater as we walk into the ocean
And do you see me at all under the tall waves?
And do you see me at all?
