Enter Shikari Dead In The Water
[Refrain: Rou Reynolds]
Everything's so-so-so-so futile, futile
I can hear the waves rolling in
I can feel the walls closing in
Everything's so-so-so-so futile, futile
I can hear the waves rolling in
[Verse 1: Rou Reynolds]
No there won't be bluebirds over
'Cause they got turned back at Dover
I'm on a tight rope, and there's no hope
I don't seem to be getting any closer
[Pre-Chorus: Rou Reynolds]
Running away from home, running from all I know
It's not the cold that makes me shiver
It's the erasure of my soul
[Chorus: Rou Reynolds, Rory Clewlow]
Dead, dead in the water
No one's here fighting my corner
Dead, dead in the water
In the water
[Refrain: Rou Reynolds]
Everything's so-so-so-so futile, futile
I can hear the waves rolling in
I can feel the walls closing in
Everything's so-so-so-so futile, futile
I can hear the waves rolling in
[Verse 2: Rou Reynolds]
We locked up all the lifeguards
And seas turn into graveyards
'Cause life guards wealth, and wealth guards life
Then there's only strife for the seeker of a new life
[Pre-Chorus: Rou Reynolds]
Running away from home, running from all I know
It's not the cold that makes me shiver
It's the erosion of my soul
[Chorus: Rou Reynolds & Chris Batten, Rou Reynolds & Rory Clewlow]
Dead, dead in the water
No one's here fighting my corner
Dead, dead in the water
In the water
[Bridge: Rou Reynolds]
Dead, dead in the water
No one's here fighting my corner
Dead, dead in the water
[Refrain: Rory Clewlow, Rou Reynolds ]
Everything's so-so-so-so futile, futile
Everything's so-so-so-so
[Bridge: Rou Reynolds, Rory Clewlow]
Make me disappear
Dead
In the water
[Chorus: Rou Reynolds & Chris Batten]
Dead, dead in the water
No one's here fighting my corner
Dead, dead in the water
[Post-Chorus: Rou Reynolds]
No one's here, no one's here
No one's here
[Outro: Rory Clewlow]
(In the water, in the water, in the water)
