You came at me fast, like tidal wave

Swept me off my feet, flooded all my things

Took away the Earth, for me to stand

So I learned to swim, til l I came to land

 

I want to soak you up, you can water me down

And watch my spirit float, as my demons drown

You’re the storm I want, and the force I need

Just like a tidal wave, needs the sea

 

You took down my walls, like a hurricane

Let the light shine in, flood through my veins

With winds so strong, that I can’t defy

But I find peace, within your eye

 

I wanna build you up, you can tear me down

Because I made my walls, out of bricks of doubt

You’re the storm I want, and the force I need

Just like a hurricane, needs the sea

 

Woahs and Ohs

La da da da da da

 

I wanna build you up, you can tear me down

Because I made my walls, out of bricks of doubt

You’re the storm I want, and the force I need

Just like a hurricane, needs the sea

Sometimes I wonder, sometimes I think

I know that I’ll struggle, but will I sink?

When I see your potential, your capability

I brace my body, for calamity!

 

I wanna pick you up, never put you down

If the sky’s the limit, we’re in the clouds

You’re the storm I want, and the force I need

Just like a tidal wave (and a hurricane) needs the sea!
