Lyrics:

She says today is gonna be the last one
I know there's never gonna be an easy way out
She's rolling round the town with a fast gun
And I know that I can't be there to catch her when she falls
Well, halfway down is halfway out of here
Either halfway drowned or halfway round the pier
And that far gone
Ohh, ooooh, ooooohhh
Ohh, ooooh, ooooohhh
I walk the steps to apartment
With a window by the shore and saw her curled on the towel
With a crack in the door, I've been searching for the words
I don't know how to say, I've been searching for the words
To make it go away
I spent all of last night, the night before that
My feet in the sand, the wind on my back
Watching the ship sail out to a blue wide sea
It must be more than this, with a kiss we can't see
Well, halfway down is halfway out of here
We're either halfway drowned or halfway round the pier
I can't break her, I can't break her heart
She's lying on the back row, crying on the back row floor
Singing, I can't take it, I can't take anymore
Just one reason, won't you leave me
It's not that far gone
Ohh, ooooh, ooooohhh
Not that far gone
Ohh, ooooh, ooooohhh
I held the back of her head
And laid her in the bed and watched the sheets raise and fall
To the rhythm of her breath, turned the lock on the handle
And slipped down the stairs in the cover of the night
With diamonds in the air, I'll say a prayer in my breath
And take a left at the water
To the rhythm of my feet, a sister and a daughter
To the rhythm of the sea and the breeze in the autumn
As it blows through the trees, my hands into the water
Well, halfway down is halfway out of here
We're either halfway drowned or halfway round the pier
I can't break her, I can't break her heart
She's lying on the back row, crying on the back row floor
Singing, I can't take it, I can't take anymore
Just one reason, won't you leave me
It's not that far gone
And I can't break her, I can't break her heart
She's lying on the back row, crying on the back row floor
And I can't take it, I can't take anymore
She says today's gonna be the last time
But I know there's never gonna be an easy way out
