She's out of her mind   Like the wind in the storm   Oh, like the ocean in the dawn   As it disappears, with the riptide      She's out of her mind   She's pulled away by the moon   She's ripped from her sleep   As the cold luna sweep gains control      Ooohhh, what you gonna do with your emotions   Ah, ones you barely recognize   In your sleep I heard your screaming, ooohhh   "this is not voluntary! this is not voluntary!   If this is life I'd rather die!"      In the riptide, in the riptide      She's out of her mind, riptide   Like a muscle that swells   You know when you trip   Whether you're well or sick, your body aches      She's out with the tide   Gone to a prisoner's dance   Where a monkey's her date   Eating limbs off a plate with a spoon      Ooohhh, what you gonna do with your emotions   Said the seagull to the loon   What you gonna do with your emotions      She said "please wake me up"   She said "don't touch me now"   She said "i wish I was dead"      With the riptide      She's out of her mind   Riptide, you always win   It happens over and over again   Riptide      She's out of her mind   Like a hurricane's rain   She does not stand a chance   At this luna dance, riptide      I was thinking of van gogh's last painting   The wheatfields and the crows   Is that perhaps what you've been feeling   When you see the ground   As you fall from the shy   As the floors disappears from beneath your feet riptide      She's going out of her mind   Out with the tide   Out of her mind   Riptide      She's going out of her mind   With the riptide   She's going out of her mind   Ah, riptide
