Ashtray Petting Zoo - The Big One Lyrics

The waves try desperately
To climb onto the rocks
Scrambling through gaps
Breaking their nails for a grip
Crashing restlessly
Someday to stop
But that day is not today
And they know it
And we know it

The birds fly overhead
Must be so nice to let the
Winter breeze take you
It's my fault, all of it
I spent more energy
Wishing I was dead
Than I did to fix anything
And they know it
And i know it

But i don't know what to do
Even when it's binary
There are no wrong answers
But there are better ones
I'm frozen solid waiting for
Just a little more evidence
That i'm not as useless as I
Always thought I'd be

I spy myself in the waves, he
Keeps floating up
Like trash, like trash, like trash
The rhythm is all off
The waves are falling back
Into their friends
Cancelling momentum
And i can't stand it
I can't stand it

But I don't know what to do
Even when it's laid out for me
There are so many answers
How could you choose just one?
I'm trying so hard just to
Maintain a little dignity
I'm waiting for the Big One
To come and wash over me

I'm waiting for the Big One
To come and wash over me

I'm waiting for the Big One
To come and wash over me
