Lyrics
[Verse 1]
The riptide pulled me under / But there wasn't any water
Just a current made of rust / And a feeling I was caught here
Between the dust and something else / A memory of salt
The tide went out a decade back / But I can feel the pull
[Chorus]
Riptide of rust / Drag me down
Riptide of rust / Drown me in the ground
You don't need an ocean / To sink beneath the crust
Just a riptide made of metal / And a heart full of rust
[Verse 2]
I felt the undertow today / Standing on the dry bed
My feet sank into nothing / And a voice inside my head said
"Stop pretending you're still surfing / The wave was never real
You're just standing in a desert / Learning how to kneel"
[Chorus]
Riptide of rust / Drag me down
Riptide of rust / Drown me in the ground
You don't need an ocean / To sink beneath the crust
Just a riptide made of metal / And a heart full of rust
[Glitch breakdown - 30 seconds]
[The ocean sample returns, but now it's clearly just wind over a glass bottle.] [The bottle sound stutters. Repeats. Becomes a rhythm. A drum machine joins. Then the band crashes back in.]
[Outro - sung through ring modulator]
Riptide... riptide... pulling me under...
[pitch shifts down]
There's no water... just the thunder...
[pitch shifts up]
Of a wave that never breaks...
[spoken, normal voice]
I'm still paddling, though.
