You pick me up

It's winter, my knuckles white

Radio blares

Your hand on my buckle

I buckle, I buckle

Sat out on the lake

Car heavy on wasted ice

The rain was ribbons in the headlights

Then we were sinking

And sinking

And sinking

And sinking

No one I ever met could get me higher

Emma, I never meant to get so low

The car, it fell through

The lake, like your love -- dark, wide

It would have swallowed me by daylight

Everything swimming

And swimming

And swimming

And swimming

And no one I ever met could get me higher

Emma, I never meant to get so low

You know that no one I ever met could get me higher

Emma, where have you been?

It's been so long

But I sleep with her

And flatline my secret sides

I only travel in the sunshine

Emma, I'm different

No one I ever met could get me higher

Emma, I never meant to get so low
