The Lighthouse

歌詞

From a tender age I was cursed with rage Came swinging like a fist inside a batting cage I went swimming with the devil at the bottom of a lake And he left me there by my lonesome He was tall and mean with venom eyes so green Wanted reconciliation, but my tongue was in my teeth And I couldn't find the floor so I was kickin with my feet But they weren't there, they were stolen There is a lighthouse in the Middle of the deep end I'm still standing on the shore line And nobody hears me scream And I'll lure you like a landslide And I'll show you lovely things If you rescue me but they'll make believe The lighthouse by the sea I met a sailor on a ship with promise in his eyes He kissed me on the mouth and dug his fingers in my thighs But a sailor ain't a savior 'cause they only tell you lies So I left him there till the sunrise Well, the waves were tall and they were crashing down He's laying in the water begging God to let him drown So I showed him all my teeth and then I laughed out loud 'Cause I never wanted saving, I just wanted to be found There is a lighthouse in the Middle of the deep end I'm still stranded on the shore line And nobody hears me scream And I'll lure you like a landslide And I'll show you lovely things If you rescue me but they'll make believe The lighthouse by the sea Well, that should teach a man to mess with me He was never seen again And I'm still wandering the beach And I'm glad I met the devil 'Cause he showed me I was weak And a little piece of him is in a little piece of me There is a lighthouse in the Middle of the deep end I'm still standing on the shore line And nobody hears me scream And I'll lure you like a landslide And I'll show you lovely things If you rescue me but they'll make believe The lighthouse by the sea And the waves come crashing down And the waves come crashing down And the waves come crashing down (And the waves come crashing down) And the waves come crashing down (And the waves come crashing down) And the waves come crashing down (And the waves come crashing down) And the waves come crashing down (And the waves come crashing down) And the waves come crashing down (And the waves come crashing down) And the waves come crashing down (And the waves come crashing down)
