[Verse 1]
Down by the water, there's no reason to give up, but I care
These empty days are always stolen, but I care
Business hours on your desk control
Thoughts of rain saturated in pain
We drive the car to the edge of the sand
With no confidence and a broken hand
The sun is hot, the kids are screaming
The dog is almost dead

[Chorus]
Down by the water, don’t give up
Let go and leave it all behind
These empty hands are always stolen
But I care, do I?
I live far from the great divide, still lonely weeping in the night
We drive the car to the edge of the sand
With no confidence, suffocated man
Suffocated man, suffocated man, suffocated man

[Verse 2]
Relaxing time is punishment
Our skin is peeling fast
Someone is dead in the water, but I care
Let's just get back to work
In the car and off we go
Overtime is overkill, but I care
[Chorus]
Down by the water, don't give up
Let go and leave it all behind
These empty hands are always stolen
But I care, do I?
I live far from the great divide, still lonely weeping in the night
We drive the car to the edge of the sand
With no confidence, suffocated man
Suffocated man, suffocated man, suffocated man

[Outro]
Sad beach, sad waves, sad wildlife
Bad days, bad ways on these holidays
No fun in the sun and the ants think we’re savages
Sad beach, sad waves, sad wildlife
Bad days, bad ways on these holidays
No fun in the sun and the ants think we're savages
But I care, oh I care
Oh I care, oh I care
Oh I care, oh I care
Oh I care, oh I care
Oh I care
