Tides

I won't let you down
Without warning
Are you scared of what you've found
In the tides of my emotion?

No man is an island
But I'm not in the ocean
I'm a distant world that's gonna make you hurt
'Cause I'm hurtling towards you

Feeling like a time bomb ticking
With the red light blinking
Thinking everyone get out my way
Maybe you could cut that wire
Take to me with pliers
Before we get blown away

People come and go
But don't stay long
'Cause what you see is what you get
I'm the outline of a man
Dreaming of starting again

Feeling like a smoking motor
On the highway shoulder
And the heat is climbing through the day
Maybe you could slide in, honey
Take the keys from me
Before we get towed away

Feeling like a tiny clover
When the hurricanes over
