King Tide

It's a dark and empty room The sun beating hard on your door Feel emotion roar within you You're flesh and blood like anyone Make some sense of your life Move your hand and make the mark I don't know why you're so confused You're flesh and blood, there's no excuse And the hunger inside Won't go away, it's starting to rise And the longer you hide The more you deny And the sea rushes in The wind is howling at your back The past is always overturned It's a dead man who would refuse And twice the man to fill his shoes And the hunger inside Won't go away it's starting to rise And the longer you hide The more you deny And the hunger inside Won't go away it's starting to rise And the sea rushes in Into my world I can feel the king tide coming All my senses overflowing One night waiting out the back Horns'll blow and cymbals crash So paint a circle in the sky I lay breathless in the arms of love There's a bruise on my back And a new understanding too --- King Tide - Neil Finn
