Lyrics Surfing on the Waves of Depression - We Are The Union

Surfing on the Waves of Depression

Every word from you, everything
Is a gift left unwrapped by me
My soul sings in sonnets, but my mouth is sewn shut
I’m the bud who forgot to open up
I could blame music, blame the road
But the truth is my circuits overload
But still every wire, and every vein
Must serve its purpose in the pouring rain
I’ve always been this way-a-a-ay
The garden’s colors eventually fade away
When I get frustrated
Every harmless observation
Gets me
Gets me
Gets me down
In endless television on a permanent vacation all alone
I hold the triple crown
Monday every reason why the birds might sing
In my eyes was a mystery
On Tuesday I sang so loud, that I couldn’t calm down
Like my wings never felt the frozen ground
I’ve always been this way
The songbird’s colors eventually fade to gray
I’m going surfing on the waves of depression
I’m gonna ride like I don’t know how to swim
I don’t need no board, won’t see me no more
'Cause I don’t care if I get back to shore
I’m going surfing on the waves of depression
I want to try but don’t know where to begin
I don’t need no board, won’t see me no more
'Cause I don’t care if I get back to shore
I’m going surfing on the waves of depression
I’m gonna ride like I don’t know how to swim
I don’t need no board, won’t see me no more
'Cause I don’t care if I get back to shore
I’m going surfing on the waves of depression
I want to try but don’t know where to begin
I don’t need no board, won’t see me no more
'Cause I don’t care if I get back to shore
