[Chorus] Burn up your heart in the UV light; You know its beat won't last the night (yeah) We can't fight love in the summer days If we keep our heads above the waves Time dilates as we swim deeper, Our voices ring out into the ether Hold my hand as we survive Another riptide summertime [Verse 2] You pour out words with whisky eyes Burns like bourbon, tastes like lies, The morning after like sweet red wine The brandy settles into the night As I hold on for my life [pop hooks] [pre-chorus] I see the world held in your eyes A crashing wave in marble skies Into the ocean blue We collide! (we colli-i-i-ide...) [Chorus] Burn up your heart in the UV light; You know its beat won't last the night (yeah) We can't fight love in the summer days If we keep our heads above the waves Time dilates as we swim deeper, Our voices ring out into the ether Hold my hand as we survive (survive) Another riptide (riptide) summertime summertime summer summertime... [heavy transition to bridge] [breakdown] ...Uneven roads fill up with anxious minds Our heartbeats racing close behind Like a thread we fray our nerves, then choke down every single word, before it catches wind and casts away what is left... [transition to chorus] [silence] [Build-up to chorus] [Extended Chorus] Burn up your heart in the UV light; You know its beat won't last the night (YEAH!) We can't fight love in the summer days If we keep our heads above the waves Time dilates as we swim deeper, Our voices ring out into the ether Hold my hand as we survive (We survive) Another riptide summertime Another riptide summertime [Instrumental overture] [Emotional Overture] [end song] [Instrumental overture] [Emotional Overture] [end song]
