beach gore from summer by fest.
We wrote this song considering the movie Jaws (1975) as an allegory for the power and risk of renewed freedom in teenagers. It considers the fact that there can be a great deal of dread and anxiety after spending time in isolation only to be thrown back into the social insanity of adolescence. - fest.

Lyrics
this town it eats off sand and water
i’m feeding off their sons and daughters
to keep the crowds at ease they opened up for the summer again
a basic instinct: sate the hunger
they’re seeing townsfolk ripped asunder
a gray mass expands into a bloody red plume of filth
now they feel a strong pressure gripping down on their arms and legs
(you better stay on the land)
pulling them deep down as my teeth sink in
(or get a bigger fucking boat)
this waters home to an ancient dread
and now they’re pulling all their guns out
blown inside out
i guess I’m just floating dead in the water
i brought fright to this town again
i'm just floating dead in the water
they’ll never forget it
it’s the summer they’ll never forget
