I fell down on it Valentine's day
  Dropped my flowers in the rain
  And got carried away
  The tide was coming in
  I could have been sad
  I could have been amused
  But I was just in pieces
  It was then that I knew
  The tide was coming in
  Aaahh this pattern on the back of my hand
  It makes a joke of me and the veins are like
  Rivers in sand running out to sea
  Nobody slept on the night of the crash
  We were all covered in devil grey ash
  The tide was coming in
  I could have been dead
  I could have been underground
  But somebody decided I should stick around
  The tide was coming in
  Aaahh I know I’m just killing time
  But time is killing me
  My eyes are witness to this crime and looking out to sea
