Don't Wait For The Tide

Verse 1

Chrome

Cold metal on the shelf

I built this bunker for myself

Checking the latch

Checking the lock

Checking the time

No more talk

Stood up

Walking out the back

Heavy boots on a gravel track

Torn coat

Frayed at the wrist

I keep a tally on a list

Chorus

Don't wait for the tide

Don't wait for the tide

Let it slide away

Let it slide away

Don't wait for the tide

Don't wait for the tide

Hook

Moving on

Moving on

Yeah we gone

Yeah we gone

Verse 2

Dust

Settles on the dashboard

Wondering what I ever asked for

No map

Just a feeling in the gut

Front door slammed and shut

Empty tank

Silver sky

I don't even have to try

Gone

Left it all behind

Left it all behind

One way trip

Fingers on the wheel

Hard to know just how to feel

Solid ground

Broken glass

Watching all the shadows pass

Chorus

Don't wait for the tide

Don't wait for the tide

Let it slide away

Let it slide away

Don't wait for the tide

Don't wait for the tide

Hook

Moving on

Moving on

Yeah we gone

Yeah we gone

Bridge

Under the bridge

Under the wires

Past the smoke and the dying fires

I see the coast

I see the end

I see a road I can finally bend

No turning back

No turning back

No turning back

Chorus

Don't wait for the tide

Don't wait for the tide

Let it slide away

Let it slide away

Don't wait for the tide

Don't wait for the tide

Hook

Moving on

Moving on

Yeah we gone

Yeah we gone

Moving on

Moving on

Yeah we gone

Yeah we gone
