about

A Crowd Electric produced the track, “The Waiter,” in response to Sparrow Hall’s short story, Two Blue Wolves (www.sparrowhall.com). The song is featured on the Two Blue Wolves Soundtrack.

lyrics

In the candlelight asking for a wine list
Italian suits wearing gold cuff links
You could be like him
You could buy her heaven
You could hate yourself

You could buy the ring
There's just the ring
All those nights in black
There was just the ring

Sitting at the bar counting all your money
Thinking of her eyes while the end's at hand
All the plates you served get crushed to glitter
Every glass of wine

Returns to sand
Turns to sand
At the end of time
There's only sand

Oh, the night's gonna bury us
Under a wave that will carry us
We'll be together on the floor of the sea
Together again and you know what we'll be

Diamonds...
Sinking down
Diamonds...

We'll be diamonds baby (x4)

All of those nights could've been beside her
All of those nights walking miles in a box
All of that seems like a cold reminder
All of your love for a primitive rock

You try to hold onto something
Try to hold the one your loving
Try to save up all your money
Try to keep the sands from running
Cuz you know the time is coming
When your heart’ll stop its pumping
When the wave will come in crushing
And then the sand amounts to nothing

The credit card that has served them so well
Will survive encased in an amber stone
But the memory of her face will wither
No photograph
No one will ever know
No one will ever know

Oh, The night's gonna bury us
Under a wave that will carry us
We'll be together on the floor of the sea
Together again and you know what we'll be

I am so done with all of this
Bury me in the black warm grave of your kiss
Soon we'll be floating, tomorrow we're stars
Carried away in a long black car

At the end that's all
