Bears In Trees - Seaside lyrics

We dance on wet pavements
Swim in puddles with sharks
I'll hold you so closely as they wrap their jaws around me
I'll sing you to sleep my love
And hold the boombox on my shoulder
I will carry these boulders
Sing it all out loud, say I love you from the crowd
You won't look and I'll just play

Sitting pretty by the seaside
Throwing rocks at passers-by
I just want you to notice when I'm not around
I want the absence to feel profound

You said punch me in the face or I'll do it for you
Right here right now I wanna see my lights knocked out
You had a black eye for weeks, you had a story for months
We've got confessions for years with the names blacked out
Kill your ambitions or we'll do it for you
Kill your darlings 'cause they'll never hold you like us
These words on repeat are all we need
Are all we need

Sitting pretty by the seaside
Throwing rocks at passers-by
I just want you to notice when I'm not around
I want the absence to feel profound
Sitting pretty on your queen-sized bed
Watching your neighbour crawl under the garden fence
We'll sing I can't help falling in love
Again and again till it means nothing again

Everyone's getting older
Everything feels that much colder
And I don't know if I've got the same skin that I wore
When we first put pen to paper, wrote some songs about the weather
Everyone's getting older
Everything feels that much colder
And I don't know if I've got the same skin that I wore
When we first put pen to paper, wrote some songs about the weather

Sitting pretty by the seaside
And throwing rocks at passers-by
I just want you to notice when I'm not around
I want the absence to feel profound
Sitting pretty on your queen-sized bed
Watching your neighbour crawl under the garden fence
We'll sing I can't help falling in love
Again and again till it means nothing again
