But now you're on the Ocean floor and I've opened a
C G Am
Brand new door
C G Am
A brand new door
Swimming out to sea, trying to find something else
While I'm skipping stones and I'm listening to the shells
And I won't forget you if someone else comes along

I found the words you wrote
C Dm
But I would not dare to quote
C Dm C
My friend, the lines you amend

| I found the words you wrote But I would not dare to quote My friends, the lines you amend Like, "What's so bad about dying anyway?" -ok those lines right there, just the way Chris Murphy sings it, is one of the best things in music history. I just find it so beautiful, it sometimes gets me emotional. That's what music is about, and Sloan nails it. | |

| I always kinda assumed this was about suicide...was I taking the lyrics to literally? -I found the words you wrote But I would not dare to quote My friends, the lines you amend Like, "What's so bad about dying anyway?"- I thought he found her suicide note, but couldn't bring to share it with thier friends/family because it was so bleak and sometime it is better not to know the truth? | |
