Lyrics
[Verse 1] You're moving through rough waters, motel boy And swimming in your sleep How could I be so blind, mis-sighted Not to see there's something wounded deep? Well, anyone could scratch your surface now It's all amphetamine You're blasting yourself into the present To blur some past indignity, say that [Pre-Chorus] You say that you hate it You want to recreate it [Chorus] I've been around, I've been your lover I let it go at Kill Devil Hill You're coming onto something so fast, so numb That you can't even feel [Verse 2] You're drinking raw adrenal, baby And do-si-do, saddo You're eating cartilage, shark eyes, shark heart, all present tense And boy, your blood is running cold Listen, this is now, this is here, this is me This is what I wanted you to see That was then, was that, that is gone, is passed You cast yourself, cast passed by, thrown down fast [Pre-Chorus] You say, you say that you hate it You want to recreate it [Chorus] I've played this round, I've played your lover I played it out to the hilt, woah You're coming onto something so fast, so numb That you can't even feel [Guitar Solo] [Bridge] You love it, you hate it You want to recreate it Now, this is here, this is me This is what I wanted you to see That was then, was that, that is gone Is what I wanted you to feel [Pre-Chorus] You love it, you hate it I'm spitting out the bitter pill, woah [Chorus] I've been around, I've been your lover I let it go at Kill Devil Hill You're coming onto something so fast, so numb That you can't even feel, woah I've played this round, I've played your lover I played it out to the hilt, woah You're coming onto something so fast, so numb That you can't even feel You've played around, you played me lover I let it go at Kill Devil Hill, woah You're moving so hard, so fast, so numb That you can't even feel
