Lyrics
The ocean of grass
On the shore of the sky
Pale green
Rippling unto the pink sand
Breakwater blue
Silhouettes of hills
Holding it all aloft
Adrift and small:
Us, dwarfed and drowned
In the beauty of it all.
A country road can be another world,
But you may only go there once.
I want to look out a window and see the void
For the walls of your bedroom go on forever
Off, damning time. Off in eternity.
[unintelligible]
I want to know this is everything
And know that the world means nothing
Now,
Forever.
Forever.
[screaming]
My heart beats
One breath is full
Of foggy daybreak streets
Dampened with ethereal rain
Pine needles and roof tin
Under bare feet
the moon in the concrete sky
Dirt road downhill wind
The shape of rocks
Under the clear water
Of the biggest river
And the ecstasy of getting sunburnt
The feeling of never wanting to turn your back on the ocean
