The Parlotones - Antidote

It's not the first time, but the last time, don't be afraid
My social unrest, an anxious conquest, I know it's strange
Oh, all the things that I've done wrong
I'll rearrange

You're the ocean, I'm the sea
You're the voice which calls to me
Calm me down, send me afloat
Upon your tides, my antidote
Mistakes were made and this I know
I'm just a man, I'm trying to grow
Into the forest that you need and not just an echo
Of what once was me (Oooooooooooooh)

Allow me to change (Oooooooooooooh)

I stayed up all night hoping to come right, my fickle brain
I crave the spotlight, not just the limelight, upon your stage
Oh, all the things that I've done wrong

You're the ocean, I'm the sea (Ooh-aha)
You're the voice which calls to me
Calm me down, send me afloat (Ooh-aha)
Upon your tides, my antidote
Mistakes were made and this I know (Ooh-aha)
I'm just a man, I'm trying to grow
Into the forest that you need and not just an echo (Ooh-aha)
Of what once was me

(Oh-oh-oh-oh)
(Oh-oh-oh-oh)

(Oh-oh-oh-oh) You're the ocean, I'm the sea
You're the voice which calls to me
(Oh-oh-oh-oh) Calm me down, send me afloat
My antidote

(Oh-oh-oh-oh) (I stayed up all night hoping to come right, my fickle brain)
My antidote
(Oh-oh-oh-oh) (I stayed up all night hoping to come right)
My antidote

(Ooooooooooh)
(Ooooooooooh)
