The Wave

The first strike of the hammer

Made my heart beat faster

The rat-tat to remind me

That there was something behind me

You can hear them

You can hear them banging on the tin

But my love won’t be saved

We’ll all be staring at the wave

They told me I wasn’t anything

Before the bombs started falling

I was a fee for the master

I was a walking disaster

I know you hear it coming

I know you hear the sound

I know you feel it coming

Don’t let it get you down

You can hear them

You can hear them banging on the tin

But my love won’t be saved

We’ll all be staring at the wave

But my love won’t be saved

We’ll all be staring at the wave
