Sidewinder - Stand Atlantic

I’m a wave in the ocean

You’re a tree in the orchard

So I’m out like I’m under

Stuck deep in your soil

From my chest, to my head

To the breath on your neck

Silhouettes and regrets

Now replace you instead

Spit me out

Spit me out

And do you feel empty?

‘Cause your whispers consume me

They grow deeper

They shake me and they linger

I’m a renegade and a sinner

You’re a blue bird in the winter

Disguising the way you hide

Like a sidewinder

You lack in conviction

So suffer in silence

With self-medication

And its sour elation

I’ve been muting the colours on my skin

I’ve been matching the distance that you bring

I fall asleep to the pressure

That I can’t make this better

‘Cause you won’t let me further in

Spit me out

Spit me out

And do you feel empty?

‘Cause your whispers consume me

They grow deeper

They shake me and they linger

I’m a renegade and a sinner

You’re a blue bird in the winter

Disguising the way you hide

Like a sidewinder

You could’ve used some respect

Instead you played with my head

And now I’ll never let you go

I’m on the side of the fence you don’t call home

Sidewinder wake me in the dead of night

So you can take me to the place you hide

(And do you feel empty?)

‘Cause your whispers consume me

They grow deeper

They shake me and they linger

I’m a renegade and a sinner

You’re a blue bird in the winter

Disguising the way you hide

Like a sidewinder
