"Waterfall" lyrics

"Waterfall"

I was barely breathing, she was on the ceiling
Falling into reverb, running with the heathen
Feeling like a city, shining like a country night

Take me as I am babe, funkin' out at first grade
Pissin' in the hallway, spittin' out the Kool-Aid
Wanna change the world, you're gonna have to change my mind
Or get left behind

And I feel the waterfall is all that I can see
Take me down, over the edge and drag me out to sea
And I know the time is now to burn it bright, it's plain to see
And I feel the waterfall is all that's left for me

I was barely breathing, the cocks outside were seething
Peyote, California, swear to God, we're leaving
Someone hit the fire alarm... Hey man, you got a light?

Ah, take me as I am babe, please don't spit on my grave
It wasn't my idea to be born in the first place
You wanna live forever, you're gonna have to kill your mind
Or get stuck inside

And I feel the waterfall is all that I can see
Take me down, over the edge and drag me out to sea
And I know the time is now to burn it bright, it's plain to see
And I feel the waterfall is all that's left for me
And I know, yes I know, yes I know it's all a dream

Where the hell do we go from here?
Now back into the cities I have known
Now there's a million places that by wanderlust ain't lain
We'll find them on the way

And I feel the waterfall is all that I can see
Take me down, over the edge and drag me out to sea
And I know the time is now to burn it bright, it's plain to see
And I feel the waterfall is all that's left for me
And I feel the waterfall is all that I can see
And I feel the waterfall is all that's left for me
And I know, yes I know, yes I know it's all a... dream
