Seaweed Song

Passion Pit · Manners [2009]

Someday you'll see

Surrounded by angels floating atop of the sea

On bended knee

Don't go where they go, don't sing all the songs they sing



Nobody knows you the way you know you

But I think I do

But I thought I knew, yeah, I thought I knew

Nobody knows you the way you know you

But I think I do

But I thought I knew, yeah, I thought I knew



Between these walls

Her back, strange glimpse, casts shadows frighteningly tall

I slow to a crawl

I jump and I yell but she hears nothing at all



Nobody knows you the way you know you

But I think I do

But I thought I knew, yeah, I thought I knew

Nobody knows you the way you know you

But I think I do

But I thought I knew, yeah, I thought I knew



Stay, stay the same

'Cause everything else will change

And I've always been to blame

So please just stay the same

The currents pull me in

The tide has reached my chin

The seaweed tickles skin

Just let the water win

I'm freezing to the bone

You'll never be at home

Just watch, you're running out

Just watch your body go



Nobody knows you the way you know you

But I think I do

But I thought I knew, yeah, I thought I knew

Nobody knows you the way you know you

But I think I do

But I thought I knew, yeah, I thought I knew
