The Sunset Beach Hut - The Tide Lyrics

I've got an elasticated heart
But you'll pull and you'll pull till you snap it
And it stretches round your many misdemeanours
To our common ground

Your arrogance disguises
My self-conscious remises
As I can't
Get a word in either side
I'm coughing up blood
From self-inflicted drudge
'Cause I can't give you up

And you always take me for a fool
And I can't challenge everything I hear
So I'll take what you say with a pinch
Just quietly waiting for the tide to come in

I knew the stakes were high
But there were things I was willing to risk
And I'll come out of this bleeding and feeling deceived
Because a thought that I had
Cast me away so easily

I'll always hold a flag for you
But it can't stay white forever
I'll always hold a flag for you
But it can't stay white forever

And you always take me for a fool
And I can't challenge everything I hear
So I'll take what you say with a pinch
Just quietly waiting for the tide to come in
And you always take me for a fool
And I can't challenge everything I hear
So I'll take what you say with a pinch
Just quietly waiting for the tide to come in
