Lyrics

Out At Sea

We tried to walk away, they left us out at sea
Emblems of other times, if only to rewind
Touched waters of the bay, back out the following day
No life, no vital signs, clocks set to ocean tides

When you were young you’d say, one day you won’t see me
You’d grow out of this town, you’re dreaming of the sound
Of nothing but your mind, nothing but open miles
Nothing has changed ‘till now, now that you’ve been let down

Their profits leave you poor
No way your touching shore
Wake up and do your chores
What are they waiting for

No flowers laid to show, nobody even knows
To feel your hometown breeze, you’d give almost anything
How time can feel so slow, caught in the undertow
Like you won the lottery, with no one there to see

Their profits leave you poor
No way your touching shore
Wake up and do you chores
What are they waiting for
The light shines through your eyes
It lights the things inside
Your body open wide
Take what they need then hide

No flowers laid to show, nobody even knows
To feel your hometown breeze, you’d give almost anything
