Name: Shivers To Share
Duration: P00H03M23S
Description: The pessimists are winning all the bets these days. Doesn't make it any less scary. The "men from the sea" line is a reference to some history thing I was watching on Youtube about the collapse of the Bronze Age. Evidently these mysterious "men from the sea" overran all the Bronze Age countries. No one knows who they were, or where they came from. Some think it was just the people rising up.

lyrics

I told her don’t be scared of the lightning baby
She said that isn’t what’s frightening me
It’s more the sound of the thunder, wondering
What’s going to happen to me?
You can measure the miles by the second
Count the seconds by the year
None of your patronizing explanation’s
Doing anything for my fear

I get scared
It’s gonna get weird
And none of your words will make it disappear
I get scared
Yeah I’ve got shivers to share
I get scared
Are you still there?

I told her don’t be scared of politicians
Cause they’re not really coming for us
She said it’s more the collaborations
You never know who you can trust
And all your indifference makes no difference
When the walls come tumbling down
You won’t have time to pack a suitcase
When the men from the sea come to town.

I get scared
It’s gonna get weird
And none of your words will make it disappear
I get scared
Yeah I’ve got shivers to share
I get scared
Are you still there?
Are you still there?

Wake up from your nightmares baby!
Screaming in the night!
Sad fact is they’re coming right back
The moment I close my eyes
You can whisper your sweet nothings
They’re not gonna do nothing
Together we can weather whatever storm’s coming?
Oh baby, you’ve got to be bluffing

I get scared
Yeah it’s getting weird
And none of your words will take us anywhere
I get scared
Yeah I’ve got shivers to share
I get scared.
