lyrics

You don't know what you mean to me and now I'm stranded out at see
Salt water in my eyes and now I'm drowning in your lies
I don't know you any more
Morals are walking out that door
As my mind washes washes up on the shore I know just what you mean before
Babe I'm way out of my depth and you're the one I wish I kept

And I know it hurts
(I wish I'd never messed with sharks, 'cause now I'm drifting in the dark)
I wish I'd never messed with sharks, 'cause now I'm drifting in the dark

I've been tossed right overboard that's the last time I'll be ignored
Sun is setting on the sea that's the last time you'll hear from me
My mind washed on the shore I know just what you meant before

And I know it hurts
(I wish I'd never messed with sharks, 'cause now I'm drifting in the dark)
I never though I'd mess with sharks, 'cause now I'm drifting in the dark

And I know it hurts
And baby I know, if you're my door

I don't know you any more
Morals are walking out that door
I never mess with sharks, 'cause now I'm drifting in the dark
Sun is setting on the sea that's the last time you'll hear from me

Last time you'll hear
