Amber Waves Lyrics by Ethel Cain
Before she leaves
Amber waves at me
Days go by, time on without me
I’ll be alright, I’ll be alright
I take the long way home
Shaking the bottle and letting them roll
‘Cause the devil I know
Is the devil I want
Is it not fun, oh
To feel many other ways?
What you do
Is nothing to me, to me
I still kick rocks when the walking is good
And pretend at the chain link that I am the wood
As I’m leaning my head back
Saying “Take me, I ain’t gonna scream”
Yet here I am empty
Watching love of mine leave
But I’ll be alright
Me and my amber waves
I’ll be alright, I’ll be alright, I’ll be alright
Is it not fun, oh
To feel many other ways?
What you do
Is nothing to me
Is it not fun, oh
In the catatonia
Maybe it’s true
You were nothing to me
