The Arctic Surge by The Ready Aim Fire! Lyrics
I've got this sinking feeling
That now that our eyes are capital letters
The arctic surge won't make it better
Your father burned the house down years ago
And your mother's still smiling in the ashes
Swearing nothing happened
Oh, God knows what brought us here
I know our love is engineered
And we're too far gone to try to steer
So, God knows how many years
Til we disappear
Til our worst fears quit whispering in our ears
So you would spend the whole night
Yeah, you would spend the whole night
Yeah, you would spend the whole night
But you would never sleep, you would never sleep
So you would spend the whole night
Yeah, you would spend the whole night
But you would never sleep
Yeah, you would never sleep
You would never sleep
Whatever's running through our veins
What's got us swerving through the lanes
Can't save you from the screams
When you come home, when you come home
But the chemicals in your purse
Have brought our bodies closer
And we forgot when morning comes
We'll be alone, we'll be alone
Oh, it's not strong enough
It's not strong enough
It's never strong enough, is it?
Our blood was never strong enough for this shit
For the ghosts that keep our tired eyes open
We were never strong enough for this shit
So you would spend the whole night
Yeah, you would spend the whole night
Yeah, you would spend the whole night
But you would never sleep, you would never sleep
So you would spend the whole night
Yeah, you would spend the whole night
But you would never sleep
Yeah, you would never sleep
Yeah, you would never sleep
Yeah, you would never sleep
Whatever's running through our veins
What's got us swerving through the lanes
Can't save you from the screams
When you come home, when you come home
But the chemicals in your purse
Have brought our bodies closer
And we forgot when morning comes
We'll be alone, we'll be alone
So we drowned that sinking feeling
Yeah, we made do, we always seem to
But when you come down
Yeah, whenever you come down
It'll be there waiting for you
That now that our eyes are capital letters
The arctic surge won't make it better
Your father burned the house down years ago
And your mother's still smiling in the ashes
Swearing nothing happened
Oh, God knows what brought us here
I know our love is engineered
And we're too far gone to try to steer
So, God knows how many years
Til we disappear
Til our worst fears quit whispering in our ears
So you would spend the whole night
Yeah, you would spend the whole night
Yeah, you would spend the whole night
But you would never sleep, you would never sleep
So you would spend the whole night
Yeah, you would spend the whole night
But you would never sleep
Yeah, you would never sleep
You would never sleep
Whatever's running through our veins
What's got us swerving through the lanes
Can't save you from the screams
When you come home, when you come home
But the chemicals in your purse
Have brought our bodies closer
And we forgot when morning comes
We'll be alone, we'll be alone
Oh, it's not strong enough
It's not strong enough
It's never strong enough, is it?
Our blood was never strong enough for this shit
For the ghosts that keep our tired eyes open
We were never strong enough for this shit
So you would spend the whole night
Yeah, you would spend the whole night
Yeah, you would spend the whole night
But you would never sleep, you would never sleep
So you would spend the whole night
Yeah, you would spend the whole night
But you would never sleep
Yeah, you would never sleep
Yeah, you would never sleep
Yeah, you would never sleep
Whatever's running through our veins
What's got us swerving through the lanes
Can't save you from the screams
When you come home, when you come home
But the chemicals in your purse
Have brought our bodies closer
And we forgot when morning comes
We'll be alone, we'll be alone
So we drowned that sinking feeling
Yeah, we made do, we always seem to
But when you come down
Yeah, whenever you come down
It'll be there waiting for you
