I'm The Ocean

I'm an accident, I was driving way too fast

Couldn't stop though, so I let the moment last

I'm for rollin', I'm for tossin' in my sleep

It's not guilt though, it's not the company I keep.



People my age, they don't do the things I do

They go somewhere, while I run away with you

I got my friends, and I got my children too

I got her love, she's got my love too.



I can't hear you, but I feel the things you say

I can't see you, but I know what's in my way

Now I'm floatin' 'cause I'm not tied to the ground

Words I've spoken seem to leave a hollow sound.



On the long plain, see the rider in the night

See the chieftain, see the braves in cool moonlight

Who will love them when they take another life

Who will hold them when they tremble from the knife.



Voicemail numbers on an old computer screen

Rows of lovers parked forever in a dream

Screaming sirens echoing across the bay

To the old boats, from the city far away.



Homeless heroes walk the streets of their own town

Rows of zeroes on a field that's turning brown

The play baseball, they play football under lights

They play card games and wew watch them every night.



Need distraction, need romance and candlelight

Need random violence, need Entertainment Tonight

Need the evidence, want the testimony of

Expert witnesses on the brutal crimes of love.



I was too tired to see the news when I got home

Puzzled the curtain, fell into bed alone

Started dreaming, saw the rider once again

In the doorway where she stood and watched for him, watched for him.



I'm not present, I'm the drug that makes you dream

I'm an Aerostar, I'm a Cutlass Supreme

In the wrong lane, trying to turn against the flow

I'm the ocean, I'm the giant undertow

I'm the ocean, I'm the ocean, I'm the giant undertow

I'm the ocean, I'm the giant undertow

I'm the ocean	(6x)
