I heard the news And it's not good I've read the weather report Said it's pouring forever But I looked outside And I saw you Sticking your tongue out and drinking from those clouds above you Fluctuat nec mergitur Fluctuat nec Everything's gone So wrong They say, "The air makes you sick, don't stay out there for too long." But then, there you are outside You don't seem to mind how the pesticides sit in your lungs Then you turned to me and you smiled And motioned for me to come play for a while But I hid away as I dreamt of a day that I'd join you Fluctuat nec mergitur Fluctuat nec I heard the news And it's not good They say, "The monsters are loose and the city's on fire." But seeing you dance in the smoke Waving your arms like a beautiful idiot Makes me believe in the hopes of the day I'd join you And while I shook at the door You ran towards the ocean to go for a swim And I saw the look in your eyes as the tide came to take you You loved it You loved it
