’High Tide, Low Tide’ actually came about during the throes of quarantine. It’s clearly been an exceptionally odd year for everyone and personally, it’s forced me to look inward and face things about myself in a way that I had never done before. As always, a hunter for silver linings, I am thankful...
[Intro: Parson James, Parson James, Bonnie McKee, Érica Silva]
I think I'm caught in your high tide, low tide
State of mind, I'm fallin' for you
I think I'm caught in your high tide, low tide
State of mind, I'm fallin' for you
[Verse 1: Parson James]
My empathy is killin' me
I'm losin' sleep, because of your ghost (Your ghost)
But honestly, it's all on me
Your heart I seek and now I'm too close, to let go
[Pre-Chorus: Parson James]
I'm probably gonna lose myself
It's probably gonna bruise my health
[Chorus: Parson James, Parson James, Bonnie McKee, Érica Silva]
I know you love the ocean but I'm on another wave
Swimmin' through emotions, everytime you come to me
You always pull me closer, right before you push away
And now I'm in too deep, to be saved
[Post-Chorus: Parson James, Parson James, Bonnie McKee, Érica Silva]
I think I'm caught in your high tide (High tide), low tide (Low tide)
State of mind, I'm fallin' for you
I think I'm caught in your high tide (High tidе), low tide (Low tide)
State of mind, I'm fallin' for you
[Verse 2: Parson James, Parson James, Bonnie McKee, Érica Silva]
You takе a hit, and never quit
Talkin' about the trouble back home (Back home, back home, back home)
I need a sip to get a grip, before we start to take off our clothes
Even though
[Pre-Chorus: Parson James]
I'm probably gonna lose myself
It's probably gonna bruise my health
[Chorus: Parson James, Parson James, Bonnie McKee, Érica Silva]
I know you love the ocean but I'm on another wave
Swimmin' through emotions, everytime you come to me
You always pull me closer, right before you push away
And now I'm in too deep, to be saved
[Post-Chorus: Parson James, Parson James, Bonnie McKee, Érica Silva]
I think I'm caught in your high tide (High tide), low tide (Low tide)
State of mind, I'm fallin' for you
I think I'm caught in your high tide (High tide), low tide (Low tide)
State of mind, I'm fallin' for you
Fallin' for you
[Outro: Parson James, Parson James, Bonnie McKee, Érica Silva]
I think I'm fallin' for you
