I was the tides and you were the moon,
you brought me too close all too soon
and just like the tides all I can feel is the cold
we suddenly came crashing to a unfortunate halt.
You shouldn't have said you revolve round another
my voice sounds so dull when before it was thunder
if these words were lies I would surely paint them white
because honestly baby, I just don't wanna fight.
So please won't you stop rubbing salt in my wounds?
I wish what we had could again be resumed
however you are the moon and no doubt you'll move on
I barely even had you and you're already gone.
So your words are like anchors and I'm helplessly drowning
my heart was so strong but you stopped its pounding.

So your words are like anchors and I'm helplessly drowning
my heart was so strong but you stopped its pounding.
spoiler: the tides are me, and i'm paralysed without the moon.
