Shoreline

Paying cash at the hotel
You said that you won't tell
You stepped through the doorway
But the room was so empty

Staring up at the ceiling
And I couldn't believe it
Then you tell me you're leaving
We were caught in a fever

Then you call me a liar
Pouring gas on the fire
Heart that's tangled in wires
It was lit by desire

To the car that was stolen
The windscreen was broken
The engine was frozen
And I know that it's over

You can melt me to my core
Screaming out that I want more
Have you finally found what you're looking, looking for?
A crashing wave upon the shore
Dragged me down and left me torn
Do you finally know what you're searching, searching for?

I'll race you to the shoreline
Meeting up with the skyline
Walked away for the last time
Can we say it's the last time?

There's a place in the distance
But we already missed it
You say it never existed
I think that we missed the exit

Saw a face on a billboard
Ripped to pieces and wind torn
It was sun-drenched and forlorn
Eyes were vacant and so bored

Being stared at by strangers
I could tell that she'd hate it
Life that's so complicated
And the dream was so faded

You can melt me to my core
Screaming out that I want more
Have you finally found what you're looking, looking for?
A crashing wave upon the shore
Dragged me down and left me torn
Do you finally know what you're searching, searching for?
