Picture hours out from that
In tune with all our dreams
Watch you weigh your powers
Tempt with hours of pleasure
Take me one more time
Take me one more wave
Take me for one last ride
I'm out of my head
Tonight, tonight
The sound of the waves collide
The sound of the waves collide
The sound of the waves collide
Tonight we ride
With me fusing all our powers
Here's to all our dreams
Take me one more time
Take me one more wave
Take me for one last ride
I'm out of my head
Tonight, tonight
The sound of the waves collide
The sound of the waves collide
The sound of the waves collide
Tonight we ride

This song is absolutely perfect. I wonder if it would be a potential single. What a crazy name for a single. This song is BEAUTIFUL.
This might be a part 2 to the song Passenger. The ocean symbolizes the trip they are on. The waves colliding are the thoughts and ideas him and someone bounced back and forth at each other while they were on whatever trip they are on in the song.

He is aware that all the deep thoughts/ideas are probably going to disappear soon and he's not ready to accept that. He feels he is the conduit, the one who remembers most of what the trip was about...

He feels he is the conduit, the one who remembers most of what the trip was about and tries to fuse all these "powers" (discussion/contemplation of what the memories mean from the trip) through him on an after hours ride through a city (city symbolizing reality).
Anyone who has been on the brink should be able to relate.

Well this song sounds pretty much like a follow up to Digital Bath since they both talk about a crazy night of sex with a chick he connects with. Either way this song is very deep and Chino sings like he never has before. Much love Deftones

Correct me if I'm wrong But there's no mention of someone having sex with a chick! Maybe you should be more realistic with your conclusions and purpose on this website.... Just a thought. "mans got to know his limitations"

Hands down the best song on the album. I'd love to see it as the next single.
agreed, my favourite as well

I really dig this song too. It's not often that Deftones does something like this. But, I do see similarities in this song, along with "Be Quiet and Drive", "Cherry Waves", and "Ever" by Team Sleep.
To me, I feel that this song is about a girl, ex-wife maybe? Sounds like he's reminiscing, wanting things back. "Picture hours out from land, in tune with our dreams", like he's saying imagine us together, away from it all, in tune and in focus on ourselves, and nothing but. And the part, "Take me one more time, take me one more wave, take me one last ride", he's saying lets give it one more shot, one more chance. I don't know, I could be wrong. That's the way I perceive it.

i love it. lots of water references in deftones songs...beware, cherry waves, digital bath

this song is about a sensual experience... it's called sextape because he wants to remember it...

The tone of this song screams love song.
I think it is about making a sex tape with a lover.
I think it's kind of awesome the multiple meanings of waves collide. Waves of pleasure, tv waves, waves of sounds (screams, moans). Just people all mixed up in each other when they orgasm.

Ethereal. Most beautiful song on the new album!

"Into with all our dreams" should be "In tune with all our dreams".

I'm pretty sure this song, like most Deftones songs, isn't meant to be taken literally. There are many metaphors, even contained within one song. The line in Sextape "the sound of the waves collide", could also mean sound waves colliding, like two people having orgasms. Bottom line is, you'll never know the "true" meaning of this song until Chino tells you himself. And even he may not know because as mentioned before, he does drugs, haha. The song is open to several interpretations, that's what makes it a good song. It sounds like a "sad" song because of Chino's tone, and voice in general. It's gorgeous, IMO.
