[Verse 1: Oscar Scheller]

Sadness is a blessing

Well, not sure I find myself so in agreement with that thought

'Cause I would trade my rainy day for someone's Milky Way

To see what I can from their spot

And I can go ahead and say tonight I’ll lay awake

The universe is too big it won’t give me a break

And my head goes round and round and round and round and round


[Chorus: Oscar Scheller]

I can hear the voices and they're yelling loud

They say how do I get out, how do I get out?

I run away from tidal waves

But they find my hiding place

Think I see a door but it’s far away

Tell me why the ocean's in the sky today

I run away from tidal waves

But I know there's no escape


[Verse 2: Oscar Scheller]

'Cause I’m sleeping with a brain

That tells me I won’t make a day over being thirty

Shit, I forgot to medicate

Run out of ways to say that me and madness are flirting

I keep on dreaming tidal waves, too fast to run away

And all these feelings are burning, oh-oh

In my head it’s round and round and round and round and round

[Chorus: Oscar Scheller, Oscar Scheller and Vera Hotsauce]

I can hear the voices and they're yelling loud

They say how do I get out, how do I get out?

I run away from tidal waves

But they find my hiding place

Think I see a door but it’s far away

Tell me why the ocean's in the sky today

I run away from tidal waves

But I know there's no escape, yeah, yeah


[Verse 3: Vera Hotsauce]

I feel it coming closer, babe

Used to be miles away

I guess it’s finding its way back

Trying to find something to say

I’m lying wide awake

Just like I know you can feel that

I think that I should start to pray that I’ll be a-okay

I hear the words in my head, it feels like no escape

But my head goes round and round and round and round, yeah


[Chorus: Oscar Scheller and Vera Hotsauce]

I can hear the voices and they're yelling loud

They say how do I get out, how do I get out?

I run away from tidal waves

But they find my hiding place

Think I see a door but it’s far away

Tell me why the ocean's in the sky today

I run away from tidal waves

But I know there's no escape


[Outro: Vera Hotsauce]

I know there's no escape, ooh-ooh

Yeah, I know there's no escape, ooh

I run away from tidal waves, yeah
