[00:32.22] Marine monster stuck in Indian summers
[00:35.90] And damns on the line but funny is the photo
[00:39.40] It's floating away going away on the tide
[00:44.42]
[00:47.80] Crystalized wished like kids cried for Christmases
[00:51.42] Ticking off lists with the pens and the fists
[00:55.30] Before floating way going away on the tide
[01:01.88]
[01:03.00] On the back of a beast and in that charge
[01:06.69] Down a broken beach the little stars
[01:10.94] They spin the shots the shards light on down
[01:18.98] To the mouth of the sea and the morning comes
[01:22.93] And in they carve the edge of the world
[01:26.80] And the locks of fire go lying around
[01:37.08]
[01:39.02] What when you heard it say forward first
[01:42.58] Transfer through the person a mystical blur
[01:46.27] Got you going away floating away on the tide
[01:51.64]
[01:54.59] Everybody ran basements and pit falling caves
[01:57.96] And crackling tapes cause faints
[02:00.81] Well this songs means I'm going away
[02:04.43] I'm floating away on the tide
[02:07.56]
[02:09.99] Down the bloody beach with a burnt out car
[02:13.56] So little I see there are slicked out stars
[02:17.62] All screaming for a distant high roof
[02:23.12]
[02:26.00] And the fizzed out snow look out folks scream
[02:29.31] And saw a broken ghost in an old soap scene
[02:33.33] ' out follow my rules
[02:38.77]
[02:57.89] I had a vision of everything hidden
[03:01.33] But always around me it fought me it found me
[03:05.52] While floating away going away on the tide
[03:13.27] Shooting through time while my eyes getting glassy
[03:16.74] And land while I watched seasons rocketing past me
[03:20.83] They're going away a little more every day all the time
[03:27.39]
[03:28.77] On the balcony in the brilliant sea where 'need
[03:33.45]
[03:34.44] A voice spoke to me and said these things just gotta be
[03:39.56] I don't know why and I said here's to the freeway flasher
[03:49.73] Here's to the desperate dasher gone
[03:53.99] I'mma keep him from crashing on
[03:57.89] And stay one I know you think you miss him
[04:05.36] I know you think you knew him
[04:09.17] But you were just passing through the light
[04:13.98] And he is leaving now he's gone
