Shark Naked - Throw Me a Line

Wind sweeps over ocean wave
I see the body, water grave
Its bloated face down in muddy shore
Don't want to be here anymore
Anymore
Homecoming time for fifty men
Welcome their small time saints again
Go through the motions, please the crowd
Good thing they can't hear me think out loud
I could snap them in two, they don't know me
Can't predict what I'd do, they don't know me
Hey throw me a line
Time to take what is mine
I've been up for so long
Waiting for the chance
To tumble down
All the lights out
Not a sound
Alive today
Trains keep pushing right on time, but
Something's wrong with the midnight line
Cars collide like dominoes
Broken face wears a fiery glow
Shock the weak, feed the curious
They've never seen loss of life like this
Young mother thanks her lucky stars
Her family walks her to the car
With just one foot inside, she looks back now
Her tears have finally dried, must move on now
Hey throw me a line
Time to take what is mine
I've been up for so long
Waiting for the chance
To tumble down
All the lights out
Not a sound
Alive today
Alive today
Alive today
Waiting for the chance
To tumble down
All the lights out
Not a sound
Alive today
