  • Lives opened and trashed
    "Look, ma, watch me crash"
    No time to question why'd nothing last
    Grasp and hold on, we're dyin' fast
    Soon be all over and I will relent

    Let the ocean swell, dissolve away my past
    Three days and maybe longer
    Won't even know I've left

    Under your tongue, I'm like a tab
    I will give you what you're not supposed to have
    Under my breath, I swear by sin
    For better or for worse, a-best we begin

    Let the sun climb, oh, burn away my mask
    Three days and maybe longer
    Shed my skin at last

    (Shed, shed)

    Let the sunshine burn away my mask
    Three days and maybe longer
    Won't ever find me here
    Let the ocean dissolve away my past
    Four days and not much longer

    Let my spirit pass, ooh
    This is, this is
    This is, this is
    This is, this is my
