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 somehwere

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 see 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
for 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 hometown

Rows of zeros
On a field
that's turning brown

They play baseball
They play football
under lights

They play card games
And we 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

Pulled 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 a 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
I'm the ocean
I'm the ocean
I'm the ocean

I'm the ocean
I'm the ocean
