lyrics to "Riptide", performed by "Vance Joy". Enjoy!

I was scared of dentists and the dark

I was scared of pretty girls and starting conversations

Oh, all my friends are turning green

You're the magician's assistant in their dreams

Oh, and they come unstuck

Lady, running down to the riptide

Taken away to the dark side

I wanna be your left hand man

I love you when you're singing that song and

I got a lump in my throat cause

You're gonna sing the words wrong

There's this movie that I think you'll like

This guy decides to quit his job and heads to New York City

This cowboy's running from himself

And she's been living on the highest shelf

Oh, and they come unstuck

Lady, running down to the riptide

Taken away to the dark side

I wanna be your left hand man

I love you when you're singing that song and

I got a lump in my throat cause

You're gonna sing the words wrong

I just wanna, I just wanna know

If you're gonna, if you're gonna stay

I just gotta, I just gotta know

I can't have it, I can't have it any other way

I swear she's destined for the screen

Closest thing to Michelle Pfeiffer that you've ever seen, oh

Lady, running down to the riptide

Taken away to the dark side

I wanna be your left hand man

I love you when you're singing that song and

I got a lump in my throat cause

You're gonna sing the words wrong

Oh lady, running down to the riptide

Taken away to the dark side

I wanna be your left hand man

I love you when you're singing that song and

I got a lump in my throat cause

You're gonna sing the words wrong

Oh lady, running down to the riptide

Taken away to the dark side

I wanna be your left hand man

I love you when you're singing that song and

I got a lump in my throat cause

You're gonna sing the words wrong

I got a lump in my throat cause you're gonna sing the words wrong

So, I know everyone that likes Percy Jackson commented about how "Riptide" was also Percy's sword, an obvious connection, but here are a few others I noticed: 1. The lyric "the magician's assistant in their dreams" well, I figured maybe "magician" could be referring to Zeus and "in their dreams" to the visions halfbloods have that can sometimes predict the future or be a way to communicate. 2. The other lyric "Taken away to the dark side" could be referring to Tartarus, and Annabeth got swept into it. (Yes I know percy went in after her, but you're missing the point.)3. Also in the lyric "closest thing to Michelle Pfeiffer that you'll ever see" in Percy's opinion and mine, Annabeth was very pretty. (Michelle Pfeiffer is very pretty, especially in her younger years) (the way I pictured her (Annabeth) anyway was pretty in my vision)4. This one is a bit vague, so I could be wrong, but I'll say it anyway. In the lyric "I just wanna, I just wanna know, if you're gonna, if you're gonna stay" correct me if I'm wrong, but, didn't Annabeth say she was leaving to some place to practice architecture or something? And her and Percy talked about it and he actually asked a similar question.Anyway, this took me a really long time to write, and if anyone has anymore connections, I am super ready to hear them! Thanks for reading all the way through, bye.
