Train Under Water lyrics

You were born inside of a raindrop,

And I watched you falling

To your death

And the sun,

Well, she could not save you

She's falling down too

Now the streets are wet

Body of water, toxic and timeless,

Atlantic ocean, New York skyline

I always get lost when I leave the village,

So I couldn't come meet you in Brooklyn last night

But I sing glory from my lowest,

And I will say peace to the people I meet

While the world waits for an explosion,

That instant of light that wipes the slate clean

So don't be fooled.

No, don't get lied to

Love was always cruel

And don't act strange, don't be a stranger

It happened to me; now, it's happening to you

But if you take that train under water,

Then we could talk it through

Well, if I could tame all of my desires

Wait out the weather that howls in my brain

Because it seems that it's always changing

The wind's indecision, the sorrowful rain

Yeah, I was a postcard

I was a record

I was a camera, until I went blind

And now I'm riding all over this island

Looking for something to open my eyes

But I still sing glory

From a high-rise

And I will say thanks if you're pouring my drinks

While the world waits for an explosion:

That moment in time when we'll be set free

Well, don't stay mad

Just let some time pass

And in the morning you'll wake feeling new

And if I don't come back,

I mean, if I get sidetracked,

It's only 'cause I wanted to

I'm keeping up with the moon on an all-night avenue

Goddamn

You make me cry
