The Bends 歌词

You've got to see me in the cold light of day You gotta see me as I am but that's the only way But it's often the way when you try to make amends Come up too fast and you're sure to get the bends It never ends I've been diving, deeper than you think Water, water everywhere but not a drop to drink The long wave return makes it harder to be friends Come up too fast and you're sure to get the bends Oh nobody knows, nobody knows Why we're chained to our first impression Oh nobody knows, nobody knows How we're changed by decompression Look at the crazy people heading for the bay (You're telling me I'm crazy) It's a drop in the ocean but we're growing by the day The long wave returns and it's hard to comprehend (You realy do amaze me) Come up too fast and you'll be sure to get the bends Oh nobody knows, nobody knows Why we're chained to our first impression Oh nobody knows, nobody knows How we're changed by decompression Look at the crazy people All heading for the bay Some keeping it together Some falling by the way Way down below the surface It's easy to pretend Gotta get up off the seabed It's time to make amends People like a river Flowing to the sea Making a stand to deliver a new philosophy No need to be defensive When there's nothing to defend Better make it last, come up too fast and you're sure to get the bends It never ends
