Tidal Wave

Double the line, pick a card
You be spades, I'll be hearts
I know I'll win before we start
I've got it down to an art
It's fun for a little while
Breaking rules and breaking hearts
Sometimes you gotta learn to lose
Don't envy me, I have my scars

This won't mean a lot, these words won't go very far
The lies that you sew hard, cold as a broken heart
Meet me at a liquor bar
I'll hustle you right from the start
I just sold my soul to this wicked game
I'll always play a higher card

But you, you had your warnings
But I watch what you're ignoring
I won't be here in the morning

'Cause she's like a tidal wave
That's what they always say
You could put up a fight
Could try to run away
Think you can ride it out
But it won't work out that way
Blue with the sunny sky
She's a tidal wave

We're laying out
That I can't let you go
We'll rise, we'll crash
Whatever, we'll float
I don't wanna
Keep your head underwater
It's funny how it goes
Twisted, I suppose
The way that two halves don't always make a whole
But I gotta hold onto a part of

You, but you had your warnings
But I watch what you're ignoring
I won't be here in the morning

'Cause she's like a tidal wave
That's what they always say
You could put up a fight
Could try to run away
Think you can ride it out
But it won't work out that way
Blue with the sunny sky
She's a tidal wave

Choose a side, yours or mine?
Pick a fight, it's your demise
Check the tide, low or high?
Make it fast, won't bore your life

'Cause she's like a tidal wave
That's what they always say
You could put up a fight
Could try to run away
Think you can ride it out
But it won't work out that way
Blue with the sunny sky
She's a tidal wave

She's like a tidal wave
That's what they always say
You could put up a fight
Could try to run away
Think you can ride it out
But it won't work out that way
Blue with the sunny sky
She's a tidal wave
