MEG & DIA LYRICS

"Santa Barbara"

Pray for them

I often loose track

So I took a drag

of my first cigarrette

and I found my head

Roll down the dumps

of twenty seventh street



I drew a sketch

with lipstick and sidewalk

of Newports edge

Legoblock cliffs

and an ocean that doesn't

deserve the sounds of silence

I'd swear on a dead artists grave



I found a spot

where the drunk never got to

And it rocks me gently silent, silent

If I never surface

then it doesn't matter

Hold my breath

It's silent, silent, now



Diligent

Escape by the water

Not sick of it

It only gets harder

That's no excuse

to block all the cliches and

reason for kicks



He strokes her hair

both sitting on sand

and her shoulders bare

nothing to demand of them

laying back on a lonely stone wall

and passersby look passed it all



I found a spot

where the drunk never got to

And it rocks me gently silent, silent

If I never surface

then it doesn't matter

Hold my breath

It's silent, silent



[guitar solo]



I found a spot

where the drunk never got to

It rocks me gently silent, silent

If I never surface

then it doesn't matter

Hold my breath

It's silent, silent, now
