Shark Boy and Lava Girl by Katherine Lawson Lyrics
Verse 1:
The doors are closed
And locked so tight
Is anybody listening to me
Reach for my throat
It feels so dry
You never really know what’s out there waiting
Pre chorus:
But I can’t keep running away from unknowns
Cover my face and keep to the shadows
Such a mess of wasted potential
Will I get up
Chorus:
Slipping off my clothes
Slowly sinking into lava
Burning skin will show
Thats the least of our problems
Lay in wait in the dark
Pulsing blood for the sharks
No one ever knows
When they’re drowning in the lava
Umm umm um um ummmm
Umm umm um um ummmm
Verse 2:
So double crossed
You stabbed my back
Showing all your teeth when you attack
The sound of solacе
Never lasts
Enemy pullеd close so they don’t
Notice
Pre chorus:
I can’t keep running away from unknowns
Cover my face and keep to the shadows
Such a mess of wasted potential
Will I get up
Chorus:
Slipping off my clothes
Slowly sinking into lava
Burning skin will show
That's the least of our problems
Lay in wait in the dark
Pulsing blood for the sharks
No one ever knows
When they’re drowning in the lava
The doors are closed
And locked so tight
Is anybody listening to me
Reach for my throat
It feels so dry
You never really know what’s out there waiting
Pre chorus:
But I can’t keep running away from unknowns
Cover my face and keep to the shadows
Such a mess of wasted potential
Will I get up
Chorus:
Slipping off my clothes
Slowly sinking into lava
Burning skin will show
Thats the least of our problems
Lay in wait in the dark
Pulsing blood for the sharks
No one ever knows
When they’re drowning in the lava
Umm umm um um ummmm
Umm umm um um ummmm
Verse 2:
So double crossed
You stabbed my back
Showing all your teeth when you attack
The sound of solacе
Never lasts
Enemy pullеd close so they don’t
Notice
Pre chorus:
I can’t keep running away from unknowns
Cover my face and keep to the shadows
Such a mess of wasted potential
Will I get up
Chorus:
Slipping off my clothes
Slowly sinking into lava
Burning skin will show
That's the least of our problems
Lay in wait in the dark
Pulsing blood for the sharks
No one ever knows
When they’re drowning in the lava
