[Verse 1]
Got the tray in my hand
White sand, gold gate
He said, "Come see the view"
Smiled like it was fate
The boat cut clean
Past the last wave line
Now the air feels sweet
And the eyes feel blind
[Pre-Chorus]
They poured us drinks
In crystal and ice
The girls got quiet
Too quiet to be nice
I saw her blink slow
I saw her knees sway
That smile on his face
Made my throat turn gray
[Chorus]
Private island
No one hears us scream
Private island
Pretty as a dream
Private island
They drugged the room we’re in
Private island
Now the hunt begins
[Verse 2]
Her phone in the bowl
Her keys in the sand
He said "Just relax"
But he never met my hand
One by one they drift
Like smoke in the heat
Then the hall door clicks
And the night gets teeth
[Pre-Chorus]
Black suits moving
Through the palms and glass
A drawer full of masks
And a map that’s cast
I grabbed her wrist
Said, "Stay close to me"
When the world went dead
I heard the locks click free
[Chorus]
Private island
No one hears us scream
Private island
Pretty as a dream
Private island
They drugged the room we’re in
Private island
Now the hunt begins
[Bridge]
If you hear my name
Follow the splash line
If the moon drops out
Run for the treeline
He bought this heaven
With a rotten grin
But the tide keeps score
And we’re getting out of it
[Final Chorus]
Private island
No one hears us scream
Private island
Pretty as a dream
Private island
They drugged the room we’re in
Private island
Now the hunt begins
Private island
We won’t go thin
Private island
We’re getting out again
