Two, three, four
Little boy, who loves you like the sea?
What mother here could carry you
And cradle you and hold you like she does?
Little boy, who holds you when you sleep?
What voices come to comfort you
In lonely rooms with blood between your teeth?
Well mothers, they may come and go
Like waves and tides, they ebb and flow
But that's okay, 'cause you have learned
To speak in tongues that aren't your own
When the others gape and grin
At monster fangs and monster skin
You know your tongue will always win
You know your tongue will always win
You thought you found a father on the sea
What father here could teach you
Care for you, notice you like he does?
Then another man who called you his friend
Made sure you'd never see him again
And as you sank
You knew why they called you a stone
Little boy who whispers when you dream
What voices talk of giving you real power
Where you've never had control?
Little boy, you know it's hard to breathe
The water here will drown you
Running out of you like blood between your teeth
Well fathers, they may come and go
Like waves and tides, they ebb and flow
But that's okay, 'cause you have learned
To use a power that's not your own
When your dealer's cashing in
Uncertainty beneath your skin
You pray that it will never win
You pray that it will never win
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Little boy, who loves you like the sea?
What mother here would wait for you
Call to you and love you like she does?
Well mothers, they may come and go
Like waves and tides, they ebb and flow
But now you've found a mother
Who's convinced you that you've found a home
When your will is wearing thin
You feel the ocean deep within
And know that she will always win
You know that she will always win
Little boy, who loves you like the sea?
What mother here could carry you
And cradle you and hold you like she does?
Little boy, who holds you when you sleep?
What voices come to comfort you
In lonely rooms with blood between your teeth?
Well mothers, they may come and go
Like waves and tides, they ebb and flow
But that's okay, 'cause you have learned
To speak in tongues that aren't your own
When the others gape and grin
At monster fangs and monster skin
You know your tongue will always win
You know your tongue will always win
You thought you found a father on the sea
What father here could teach you
Care for you, notice you like he does?
Then another man who called you his friend
Made sure you'd never see him again
And as you sank
You knew why they called you a stone
Little boy who whispers when you dream
What voices talk of giving you real power
Where you've never had control?
Little boy, you know it's hard to breathe
The water here will drown you
Running out of you like blood between your teeth
Well fathers, they may come and go
Like waves and tides, they ebb and flow
But that's okay, 'cause you have learned
To use a power that's not your own
When your dealer's cashing in
Uncertainty beneath your skin
You pray that it will never win
You pray that it will never win
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh

You know that she will always win
