When the oceans are dark
The heavens are foreboding
A chain link wind
Is breaking you openAnd lessons of the day
On a blackboard night
It seem to be erased
And the beacon has a lightThe eyes of confusion
Looking for a string
Everything they need
To keep the dogs away?There's no escape hatch
No submarine
Could take you to the moon
Break you in the wavesAnd keep you just the same
All in my eyes
Some day, some day
Say bye bye bye byeBye, bye, byeI'm smaller than a stone
Bigger than a road
Farther than an ocean
Closer than a soulEvery little word
And every little step
Every new direction
Closer you would getThe farther away
You go from where we went
I'll try to keep with you
Hold you like a starFound the frozen bank
To a hollow tune
Pushes up beyond
And all they come from homeWhen you bring them down
All they fall aside
On the radios
Don't forget it's yoursBye, bye, byeWhat?
Dinner time, yeah
