about

i said i didn't want to make a divorce record.

this song is just in its early-baby concept stages and will probably turn out quite a bit different. let us know what you think!

lyrics

i built myself a desert, wrote you this letter
i dug my own grave
so shallow, so you'll never come back
i went into hiding, with a picture of you smiling
and you never came
i can't swallow, don't ever come back

oh filthy water, under the bridge in my city
drown the ocean of tears that falls into you tonight
oh filthy water, under the bridge wash over me
now we know there's no fear when we close our eyes

i set myself on fire, torch bridges, burn with desire
you know i won't say
i can't follow, i'll never come back
i put myself to bed, with this aching in my chest and bones and my head
so hollow, we'll never go back

oh filthy water, under the bridge in my city
drown the ocean of tears that falls into you tonight
oh filthy water, under the bridge wash over me
now we know there's no fear when we say goodbye
