lyrics

I stopped at a restaurant on the sea side of Yachats to catch up with the time
I knew if i was lucky, I'd get there real early, have a drink and still catch the tide
But i was wrong.. I'm always wrong

And the moon is the same as it was when i was born
Nothing has changed, it just hangs in the dark
The planet isn's green, we've killed everything
There's only you and me, at least we spin consistently
And you should learn to live a little
And i should learn to learn a little
And you will lie, lie a little
Then i will burn, then die a little.

But i wil try to solve the riddle of why we're alive and why we're so brittle
And i would go, discover globes, Why'd we make our home..
And i would go solve the poem of why'd we make our home?
Then i would go, solved the code of why'd we make our home..
Why'd we make our home.. on this lonely little globe.
