I couldn't read by the ocean The sea breeze prematurely Flipped each page for me. My eyes caught The very words I had been Anticipating for hours I found the end Before I configured a beginning. Much like the way my daydreams Never quite know how to step Out of the clouds. Probably because They have a hard time finding A ground they've never known Tales taller than myself Filled up my silly little brain With the idea that I'd rather jump ships Than skip from stone to stone The water here is polluted More than the people. They insist on throwing their Things Into the ocean. The problems they've been Tossing away all these years Always find their way back to Shore But I find that there's a sunrise In the middle of the day Coasting over every lonely coast In search of a girl With her head under the waves Life is a little more peaceful there

Smoke and Salty Air
I couldn't read by the ocean The sea breeze prematurely Flipped each page for me. My eyes caught The very words I had been Anticipating for hours I found the end Before I configured a beginning. Much like the way my daydreams Never quite know how to step Out of the clouds. Probably because They have a hard time finding A ground they've never known Tales taller than myself Filled up my silly little brain With the idea that I'd rather jump ships Than skip from stone to stone The water here is polluted More than the people. They insist on throwing their Things Into the ocean. The problems they've been Tossing away all these years Always find their way back to Shore But I find that there's a sunrise In the middle of the day Coasting over every lonely coast In search of a girl With her head under the waves Life is a little more peaceful there
