lyrics
VERSE 1
I woke up on a rollercoaster
Heart inside my head, chest was full of dread
In a moment, thought my world was over
Did I make it up, or was I really at the pinnacle?
PRECHORUS
So I slept right through it, hit the pavement, kept on running
Eyes are heavy, thoughts are heavy
CHORUS
Now the wave is crashing down, down, down, down
Now the wave is crashing down
VERSE 2
When I woke up, I was in the air
Suspended in a daze, with creases on my face
In my pocket, felt around for crumbs
To feed the gnawing hunger, I started sucking on my thumbs
PRECHORUS
So I slept right through it, hit the pavement, kept on running
Eyes are heavy, thoughts are heavy
CHORUS
Now the wave is crashing down, down, down, down
Now the wave is crashing down
BRIDGE
I notice patterns more than ever
In every truckstop subway sandwich, every midnight motel lobby
Every time I wash my face off, every time I text “I’m sorry”
In every prepossessing person, in every grinding repetition
In every time I put my face on
In every hand I put my heart in
CHORUS
Now the wave is crashing down, down, down, down
Now the wave is crashing down
Now the wave is crashing down, down, down, down
Down
