lyrics

Slide
We’re all at sea about our new-found game
Of make believe that you’re happy
Won’t you throw a line to me?

You are so beautiful
And every time you fail it makes me smile
To see you’re not alone again (and not an island)

I wonder yeah I wonder about it all
It’s so high and it’s so good that I can’t fall
That joke is just so sick it makes me smile
Climb right to the top and then we slide

There is a pattern running through the night
Make your way to the light

You’re feeling less than beautiful tonight
But not so sick and stupid as we slide
Leave this crazy bubble far behind
So glad you’re with me as we slide
