[Verse 1: Oscar Scheller]
Sadness is a blessing
Well, not sure I find myself so in agreement with that thought
'Cause I would trade my rainy day for someone's Milky Way
To see what I can from their spot
And I can go ahead and say tonight I’ll lay awake
The universe is too big it won’t give me a break
And my head goes round and round and round and round and round
[Chorus: Oscar Scheller]
I can hear the voices and they're yelling loud
They say how do I get out, how do I get out?
I run away from tidal waves
But they find my hiding place
Think I see a door but it’s far away
Tell me why the ocean's in the sky today
I run away from tidal waves
But I know there's no escape
[Verse 2: Oscar Scheller]
'Cause I’m sleeping with a brain
That tells me I won’t make a day over being thirty
Shit, I forgot to medicate
Run out of ways to say that me and madness are flirting
I keep on dreaming tidal waves, too fast to run away
And all these feelings are burning, oh-oh
In my head it’s round and round and round and round and round
[Chorus: Oscar Scheller, Oscar Scheller and Vera Hotsauce]
I can hear the voices and they're yelling loud
They say how do I get out, how do I get out?
I run away from tidal waves
But they find my hiding place
Think I see a door but it’s far away
Tell me why the ocean's in the sky today
I run away from tidal waves
But I know there's no escape, yeah, yeah
[Verse 3: Vera Hotsauce]
I feel it coming closer, babe
Used to be miles away
I guess it’s finding its way back
Trying to find something to say
I’m lying wide awake
Just like I know you can feel that
I think that I should start to pray that I’ll be a-okay
I hear the words in my head, it feels like no escape
But my head goes round and round and round and round, yeah
[Chorus: Oscar Scheller and Vera Hotsauce]
I can hear the voices and they're yelling loud
They say how do I get out, how do I get out?
I run away from tidal waves
But they find my hiding place
Think I see a door but it’s far away
Tell me why the ocean's in the sky today
I run away from tidal waves
But I know there's no escape
[Outro: Vera Hotsauce]
I know there's no escape, ooh-ooh
Yeah, I know there's no escape, ooh
I run away from tidal waves, yeah
