Riptide meridian, count every burning ray (Version 2)

Verse

Concrete floor still shaking, bassline in my molars

Blood orange creeping up behind the water towers

Ash on my collar, smoke inside my lungs

Last one standing when the speaker system's done

Pre-Chorus

Eyes wide open, world's a slow motion

Tide's coming in on the edge of the ocean

Chorus

Riptide meridian, sun cutting through the haze

Riptide meridian, count every burning ray

Riptide meridian, pulling me out to sea

Riptide meridian, nothing left of me

Verse

Empty cups rolling, glass under my boots

Skyline turning silver where the smoke still loots

Chain still swinging, kick drum in my chest

Sunrise coming for the ones who never rest

Pre-Chorus

Eyes wide open, world's a slow motion

Tide's coming in on the edge of the ocean

Chorus

Riptide meridian, sun cutting through the haze

Riptide meridian, count every burning ray

Riptide meridian, pulling me out to sea

Riptide meridian, nothing left of me

Bridge

No more shadow, no more night

Water's rising, taking me outside

Bass keeps bleeding into morning light

Current's got me, I don't fight

Chorus

Riptide meridian, sun cutting through the haze

Riptide meridian, count every burning ray

Riptide meridian, pulling me out to sea

Riptide meridian, nothing left of me
