Meg & Dia
Santa Barbara (Acoustic)
[Verse 1]
Pray for them
I often lose track
So I took a drag
On my first cigarette
And I found my head
Roll down the dumps
Of 27th Street
[Verse 2]
I drew a sketch
With lipstick and sidewalk
Of Newports edge
Lego block cliffs
And an ocean that doesn't
Deserve the sounds of silence
I'd swear on a dead artists grave
[Chorus]
That I found a spot
Where the drunk never got to
It rocks me gently silent, silent
If I never surface
It doesn't matter
Hold my breath
It's silent, silent
[Verse 3]
Diligent
They skate by the water
Not sick of it
It only gets harder
That's no excuse
To block all the cliches and
Reason for kicks
[Verse 4]
He strokes her hair
Both sitting on sand
And her shoulders bare
Nothing to demand of them
Laying back on a lonely stone wall
And passersby look passed it all
[Chorus]
Then I found a spot
Where the drunk never got to
It rocks me gently silent, silent
If I never surface
It doesn't matter
Hold my breath
It's silent, silent
I found a spot
That the drunk never got to
It rocks me gently silent, silent
If I never surface
It doesn't matter
Hold my breath
It's silent, silent now
